Hi all,

Having Read about computer security, one of the parts that mostly
called up my atention were the access control mechanisms. I've found
out that the mechanism used by mostly of the Unix-like systems is DAC
(Discretionary Access Control) and as I could see OpenBSD fits in that
mechanism as well. But the literature says that there is a more
sophisticated mechanism, called MAC (Mandatory Access Control). In my
studies, all the papers I have read explain that
MAC is much more sophiscitated that DAC. Thus I would like to know
from you why OpenBSD does not implement this type of mechanism.

Thanks.
