"old guy"

you, my friend, are not even an intelligent troll....although troll you
indeed are.

this thread has been dominated by your contentious diatribe and it is
obvious that you enjoy nothing more than proclaiming your tid-bits of
actual knowledge as though they somehow make you an expert on anything
more than how to read a book and quote someone else's wisdom.

half of your posts read like a "mine is bigger than yours" scribble on
a restroom wall and the other half are obviously cut-and-paste snippits
from google or some half-used book you have on a dusty shelf.

you have done absolutely nothing to assist the original poster's
question.  when people such as mutant or myself offer valid points for
the poster to consider (as well as offer additional resources) all you
can try to do is poke holes in the methodology as though you are some
sort of self-appointed guru on system administration.

you tout things such as disk-quotas as though they will resolve any
problem that may occur that could result in data loss (ever hear of
hardware failure you twit?) and seem to take great pride in suggesting
that any sort of attack stems from improper permissions (duh.  any
human death results from a loss in breathing, moron).

i believe that there are several of us that are fairly competent in
administering several platforms and doubt very seriously that any
book-quoting bottom-feeder such as yourself (here is your opportunity
to impress us all by responding with some crap list of certifications
and accomplishments...hurry, i'll hold my breath...) will have much in
the way of original contributions.  Simply regurgitating information
you glean from search-engines and your local book store in an effort to
discredit anybody else's opinion does absolutely nothing for your
credibility and further, IMHO, is a stain on the open-source community
and one of the leading reasons that we are   treated so cynically in
the popular media.

One of the beautiful things about the open-source community is that
there are so many contributing authors and technical individuals, each
with their own agendas and reasons for doing things.  It is a shame
that someone such as yourself has to attempt to discredit anything that
doesn't fit with your particular vision.  You seem to enjoy picking
fights and dissecting other people's words instead of contributing to
the community.  What a waste.

You may (or likely may not) be a fairly intelligent git.  I really
couldn't say.  However, based on the tone and content of your postings
here, I think perhaps your time would better be served by returning to
Elementary school and practicing rule #1:  Playing well with others.

I await your scathing return with extreme disinterest.
