I call upon | any system administrator having "Smith" accounts to: | | 1. Post to the Net any identifying information in their possession | about "Smith". +--------------- Son, if you think the sysadmins at ncoast are going to willingly violate someone's privacy just to make _you_ happy -- and that we have the time to keep a posting of such users updated for you -- then you've got a surprise coming. _IF_ you have a legitimate gripe about some user on ncoast, send mail to ncoast!root and we'll do something about it. Otherwise, I see no reason to inform the world who ncoast!trucker or etc. are; if the user with that account wishes to inform the world of tho s/he is, fine, but it's none of _my_ business, nor is it the business of Rich, Phil, or Bob, the other sysadmins on ncoast.
