I would agree with that statement, with some slight editing, such that it
reads:

"Windows opens a security vulnerability to the users PC."  :)

Jammie,

Perhaps if we knew what your security guy thinks the issue is, we might be
able to help.

I have rh7.2 installed in a LPAR. I have setup some network printers and
used them okay with SAMBA. However, our security guy informs me that will
not "fly" in production environment due to security issue regarding SAMBA.
Is there an alternative or do I have to "sell" this as is?

regards, j-me
