Hi !

A user just reported that someone is logged in at the same Sun
workstation as he is as "Negative Access". Since the Suns have single
user liscense only, plus the fact that that negative access login has
been idle for 64 days, it would like the workstation could possibly be
hacked. Can you please take a look at it (hopefully it is not a security
compromise). Below are the relevant information I could gather:
