Yes. Actually, yes. Do you understand now what you have done by giving your password to multiple people? This is *completely* different from asking for help. You are giving someone complete access to do ANYTHING and without even being logfiled (try it - can you find out what I did? You'll be able to find a few things, like what IP addresses I logged in from, but not everything); this is something that you simply do not EVER do. And rm -rf / (by the way, it wouldn't work if I shouted at your computer the way you're shouting at me) is actually not the worst thing I could do. If one of your clients accepts credit cards from his customers and stores them, I could compromise your client's customers. They have a measure of trust in the web server; you are betraying that trust by letting me in. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
