Ray, I do the exact same thing on my UNIX boxes at work. OF our 3,000 users…only about 10 can do anything except access the database thru a very controlled environment that I set up. However, those 10 have pretty much free rein (other than superuser access) and generaly are doing developement or bug fixes on current applications. Should one of them generate the equivalent of a GURU (Unix core dump) no one else has any notion that there was a "crash"…since the multi-user OS provided user-user protection. The same can't be said for the Amiga. Should any one user generate a crash…the whole machine is down. Tom's application seems to prevent an intentional crash by one of hte users…but what about the unintentional? Tom's not cheating…I never said he was. Don
