Just the minor comment about AFS /bin/login that it contains the same
LD_LIBRARY_PATH hole that Sun just fixed.  A minor security hole, but
worth patching.

(The hole lets a user get a shell in a no-password account (i.e. user
"sync"), even if the login shell is intended to be a non-interactive
program (i.e. /bin/sync).  The bug has been discussed on usenet, and
source code that gives the basic idea of how to fix it is in the recent
CERT bulletin.  Wietse Venema ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote the patch.)

... just an afs user.  I don't work for ITS.  These are my opinions.
