Others may find themselves in situations that differ
from yours. I use adduser on my boxes, but I
administer servers that sit behind firewalls that
*only* allow traffic through port 80. I have no
control over the firewall or the decision making
process. I use webmin (actually I use webmin ssh
module to get a prompt rather than the webmin user
module, but that's not my point). Go easy on the
judgments, eh?
