Please tell me about yourself (kerberos).
I've recently read some amusing articles in USENIX proceedings and a Sun
glossy, written by someone at Sun who claims to be talking about ``security''.
I don't think this can be true, though, since he then says I have to put
my root password decrypted in a secret file (and/or have people queue up
at all our discless workstations to allow setuid files to work).
I know that you publish your root passwords, but also have the wit to make
this not matter. Anyhow, I'd like to know more.
