SubjectRe: Linux needs flexible security
SNIPPED all.

You just need a 'RUN' utility (Just like VAX/VMS). It is the only thing
that could fork() and exec..(). This is not Unix, but could be readily
encorporated into a system that uses the Linux kernel as a core, but
has modified 'C' runtime libraries.

Any/all programs make their system calls through this utility. Foreign
programs wouldn't even execute. It's all been done before and it works
for good security.


Cheers,
Dick Johnson

Penguin : Linux version 2.3.13 on an i686 machine (400.59 BogoMips).
Warning : It's hard to remain at the trailing edge of technology.
