My point is that this is a known security issue that can easily be fixed via either removing upstream. Or, by the various distro since ,they are done differently based upon distro and service. So, it is not necessarily as simple as commenting it out of the /etc/inittab. Yes, it is up to each admin to know these things. But, why not just disable it and have the option to enable? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
