Not personally, no. Ideally you guys would at least ACKNOWLEDGE most messages that don't get much of an answer (e.g. "Gee, uh...got your message but couldn't answer it"). >I looked back in the history for your message. It got flushed... >Why don't you repost it? Well...all I really want are valid template files for use with INPROT that give you as secure a system as the darned ACL's can make it. When I posted my original message, I was struggling with things like finding out which parts of the OS I could get away with protecting before the OS was protected against itself. I just figured that it was truly a waste to provide INPROT and not provide templates. You guys had templates at 9.7, why not at 10.1? -Dave Hayes
