One of the uses for psuedo multiuser is the distinction between 'remote' users and the local user. As systems become networked it becomes more desirable to let others access some of your machine but not all of it. Thus having at least this distinction is useful. It also would help the BBS crowd out for the same reason since they often share their machine with people calling in but like to protect themselves from malicious callers. -- --Chuck McManis uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: cmcmanis ARPAnet: cmcmanis@sun.com These opinions are my own and no one elses.
