Um. It looks like I stepped on some toes. I apologize. I was mainly
addressing the VMS environment when I made my crack about "system
administrators
worth their salt". I have no idea what the requirements are for login
directories in the Unix world. Moreover, I was trying to be "smart", and while
I had my tongue implanted in my cheek, I did not make it clear that I can
imagine business reasons even on VMS for having world readable login
directories
(though not world writeable).
Sorry.
