Slackware got basic secuirty system, too. I want to turn off the
master-arm switch. :)
I disagree. Linux comes with a lot of training wheels - otherwise
everyone would still be running Slackware (not that that's a bad idea

that's just the

so the a group attributes can totallly disarm the beast?
hmm...how about owner and group names? Certain daemons insist on
comparing names (ie, gid and uid).
