Dear Madam or Sir,
(I am root because I am binkley)
I often find that when logging into a server as ROOT, there are things
attached to MIT that *I did not attach*.  Now this may be no problem,
but does it give me access to things which I should have no right to?
Being a nobody, I do not know what I am not supposed to see, therefore
it all looks kosher to me.
It is also the case that most of the time, nothing at all is attached
to MIT; this leads me to believe (perhaps wrongly) that I am not
supposed to have other peoples accounts attached to MIT when I login
as ROOT as is often enough the case.
I apologize for blathering.
binkley.
