Description

This article is from the comp.security.unix and comp.security.misc FAQ, by Alan J Rosenthal flaps@dgp.toronto.edu with numerous contributions by others.

(1.04+ contains an assortment of minor fixes and enhancements to 1.04,
and was released in 1993 by the original author (Dan Farmer).)
