Ummm....  I think -- as one who seems to have received such a
condemnation -- that such a punishment is a bit on the harsh side....

(Yes, it's a daily pair of culture-shocks to go to work where I'm a
systems programmer on an IBM machine running MVS/XA, then come back to
this UNIX machine at home.  Of course, that's one reason I give away
logins on the machine (especially to my colleagues at work) -- to show
them the Right Way....  Not sure it really does a lot of good, though --
management seems to think the whole group (systems programmers... nearly
all of whom have logins here) are a bunch of trouble-makers....  :-)

Perhaps just a couple of months would be adequate to convince him of the
error of his ways....  :-) :-)

Let us not be harsh,
david
