As are all of ours. I'm just pointing out that this rule (and a few others)
will probably make your system unresponsive to logins in certain situations.

DO NOT APPLY THIS BLINDLY TO OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS

I was forced to do this at one site. Got a all 2 hours later that they
couldn't login to any systems.

This is great for workstations and login nodes but may destroy operational
systems that do heavy data processing/manipulation using regular user-level
or system acccounts such as mail servers, HDFS, data processing nodes,
etc...
