There's a cute way I found to break security on a large number of
Berkeley machines.  For some reason I'm getting conservative in
my old age, so I won't repeat it here.  If you consider yourself
a responsible person, drop me a line and I'll tell you how to fix
it.  It has been fixed in 4.2bsd, so if you have converted to 4.2
you probably don't have to worry unless you kept a lot of stuff
from 4.1 .
