got your point, but *IF* the right users and processes could be
guaranteed, then the file system should be modified more for speed+size
and less for security.
the only last thing that scared me is those stack or buffer attacks
which could enable a remote users to drop into a root prompt. I have no
idea how that could be possible and done. In DOS, when there is a stack
overflow, the whole PC just hanged. no compromise.
