Mandrake 8.2 has a default security setting that leaves users' home
directories world readable. I just read that you can enter other
user's home directories and subdirectories and read the files. The
Mandrake msec level by default choice is Standard. If you chmod
you may want stronger security for one reason or another, the default msec values look
pretty good to me.
