Hey folks: Whenever folks start to talk about permissions and using things as individual users or system wide the notion of keeping them valid for multi-users system are paramount. I wonder how many of you actually user linux mechines as a multi-user box? Back when I kept various Unix like machines for students and the public in the eighties and nineties they were pretty well all used as multi-user systems. Since linux became readily available over the years I don't think I've ever seen one actually used as a multi-user machine. I'm trying to figure out whether it is really important to keep the availability present or if we might be crippling the community by insisting on it? The ongoing argument about whether pulse audio running in system mode or individual mode is a perfect example of what I'm wondering about. I'm sure there many other examples that could be dragged up. Your opinions would be interesting to hear. Kirk
