Generally, in any non home-user environment, it isn't desirable for anyone at a computer to see available user names. One reason people complain is because RedHat has at times, blithely put in Fedora-isms, which are often aimed more at the single user laptop, into their RHEL releases, where some things can be inappropriate. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
