>>indeedy. I am just wondering why this mechanism is not more often used
or even the default. I find it much preferable to the concept of giving
high access permissions on the FS level and then restricting those in a
config file. It somewhat limits your choice of FS (I use JFS) if you
have a server for more than a few people, but I see no other downside.
