I know that unix was not developed with security in mind, and so is weak in that area. Since the HURD is not unix, I was wondering how it will handle security, and will it be better than traditional unix systems? What are the issues of HURD security? What will be its soft spots? What about sendmail? Zack (Rather than beef about the lack of the HURD, a meaningful discussion might help make it better when it finally does reach a more finished stage.)
