Re: rwxr-xr-x /root
It seems to me that there should be a "global" decision made
when the system is insatlled between:
1. This computer should be more OPEN than SECURE.
2. This computer should be more SECURE than OPEN.
Subsequently installed/configured security-conscious
packages can be guided by this "global" setting.
