Hi,

** My latest encounter with NT's lack of true
** multi-userability is with Lotus' Sametime
** Connect.  When you run it as a user and ask
** it to auto logon and save your password,
** anybody who later logs onto NT under a
** different user can fire up Sametime Connect
** and it logs right into the previous person's
** account.   Window's developers still have no
** clue on how to develop for a multi-user
** platform.

Thats bad.  Even for Microsoft and Lotus.  I
thought they had worked things like this out!
Thats almost as bad as cookie hi-jacking.

Looks like the marketoids have been doing the
rounds and leaving IT depts world wide in
chaos with badly written software again :-P

Win2k looks much better, but is still far out
on Linux from multi-user environments.
Terminal server isn't an option as WinXX cant
cope with the kernel level hacks to do more
than one UI.

- Chris.
