Is there a good reason why all the start stop functions in /etc/init.d are
executable by anybody by default. It seems to me that this allows your average

when building your own kernel.
I'd like to hear a good explanation of what the security problem is,
and why anyone would want to use source routes.

can send bad IP packets to your machine and they'll get there.
How is the X authorization set up in Debian?
I am running xdm and I discovered that only the login user can
start an X window. There are 2 situations when I cannot start a
X window:
