I noticed that my systm clock is slower when I use linux, a problem I never
had before (when I used windows 98 and then 2000).
I thought the cause could be the operation where linux set the system clock
to GMT and then revert it back to local time, so I told Mandrake Config to
use the GMT time
I wonder whether at boot time services are started one after the other or
two or three at time.
If they are executed one after the other, is there a way to tell the init

Is it possible, for a user who already has an account in a linux box, to
become root by compiling and starting a program known to be vulnerable?
If yes, how to discover this user?

In Windows XP I'm are able to switch between users without closing the
