Hmmm...but what do you do when you fire the guy that has the combination of
the safe in his head?

Managers are responsible for employees. It should never happen that only one
person has the password. Keep them in a safe or anywhere but not just in the
head of a net admin. If you lose your password because you fire the guy who
is the password guru, then you have serious management flaws and
$BIG_COMPANY = 0;

Steve

BIG_COMPANY fires me during YAMROL[1]
$BIG_COMPANY now needs to move their nameservers to new IP's, or
perform some other maintenance on their domain.
Is it accurate to say that $BIG_COMPANY, even though they're listed
as the owner, has absolutely no way short of a court order of getting
it done?
I'm not passing judgement here, I'm just noting that what's being
described above is VERY tight security, and I'm not sure it is all
that practical in all cases. It's cool that the "fake fax" won't get
a xfer moved, but at what cost? *chuckle*
I guess I'm asking "how firm IS that position?"
