Hi,

I am allowing a couple of ppl to have a shell account on one of my machines,
and I am making a few changes to disallow them from using certain things...
like chmoding the 'ps' command to 550 etc...

I wanted to ask, is there any reason why one wouldn't want to chmod to 640
the passwd file and other similar files? ...

Thanks,

Jordan
