| Linux policies
I just read the article about Linux security posted on the front page, and I have to say I'm really excited about Linux policies. I've worked with Windows a little bit, and their concept of policies is a very powerful tool that doesn't really have an analogy in the Unix world.
But what I really like about policies isn't the security nature of them, but the customization ability, the ability to really control the desktop and functions the user has access to. That's a problem with putting out Linux desktops en masse into a working enviroment. I've tried locking down Linux desktops for use in public labs, and it's a pain.
Control of computers is often a good thing in an enviroment where people only know how to open a word processor and their e-mail client. As it stands with Linux, it's hard to control of numerous clients, as opposed to Windows and it's policy/domain system. Hopefully this policy system will make it easier. |
