The following files have the following permissions
-rwsrwxr-x 1 root bin 65908 Jul 8 1997 /usr/openwin/bin/xlock
-rwsrwxr-x 1 root bin 39860 Jun 26 1997 /usr/openwin/bin/sys-suspend
Why is the group permissions set to write? I am assuming this can
be removed (as the date stamps haven't changed for years!).
Anyone have any comments on this?

Expressed in this posting are my opinions. They are in no way related
to opinions held by my employer, Sun Microsystems.
Statements on Sun products included here are not gospel and may
be fiction rather than truth.
1. sys-suspend Permissions "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!"
In Solaris 2.6, why on earth is sys-suspend world executable? It is a
very cool concept, but in a world where it seems most Sun are Servers
of at least something would you make a world excuatable program that
can bring the server to an offline state?
I consider this a bug that should be fixed! Perhaps at the least there
should be a pre-defined group that can execute this command.
What are other peoples opinions? Or is changing the permisions of this
program just another item on the checklist everytime you burn a machine?
