There's not much that doesn't have a security hole .... whether known =
ones or ones yet to
be discovered. The thing I like about sudo is that it helps control =
access to who can do
what.  The solution for people that paranoid about security could well =
be to lock the mission
critical machine down well & run services requiring shell access by =
users on a different (and=20
ideally less "mission critical") machine
