-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 As for a way around this...There are plenty. One of which I can think of is to modify your script so it authenticates against something like /etc/passwd. I've seen scripts that do this in C...In fact I think I have one lying around here somewhere. I'm sure there's a Perl module or 2 that can do this, not sure of any names however.
