Yes, but admin tools aren't useful to Corporate User Joe either. Only his Administrator, Alan is going to get any use out of these tools. Joe will only wonder why the lock-down tool is locked down. When I suggest a administration suite. It implies that it is a set of tools we endorse, but perhaps should not be installed by default, since they're not useful to most people. It is worth noting that such tools also require a different level of documentation, as Administrators want more nitty, gritty details than most other users. --d -- Davyd Madeley http://www.davyd.id.au/ 08B0 341A 0B9B 08BB 2118 C060 2EDD BB4F 5191 6CDA _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
