Most of our user base probably won't have to fear an abuse of this kind, but have good reasons to run things like screen savers on their personal workstation in idprio mode. Just that something makes sense to an ISP-class machine doesn't mean it makes sense to any and all FreeBSD installation. I guess 95 % or more of our installed base are rather mostly-singleuser workstations. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
