This seems to illustrate an erroueous 'permmission denied to use at'

cn2:/etc# cat at.deny

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo '123' | at now
You do not have permission to use at.

According to the documentation, if there's no /etc/at.allow, and the
user's name isn't in /etc/at.deny, the user should be allowed to use
'at.'

Thanks for looking into this.
