Re: Unix Application,

Hi,


1) The rationale is very simple, Openness,simple and compatible.

a) Since it does not hide anything the model is open to evaluation
and better feedback.
b) Simple in the sense working on it with out without standard
programs is easy.
c) If you copy /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to other systems
you won't break anything, provided the UID's and GID's are the
same intended. Though i would never recommend this.

2) Yes users will be still forced to change the password
independent of the shell.
