      @coliver Thanks, I added that to the thread.

      It doesn't surprise me. In undergrad we had two professors who would make claims that directly contradicted what they were teaching... there was a reason I ended up teaching their classes after hours.

        What do you expect from the same people that teach you that using an @ sign in a password is more secure than just the letter a.

        You mean it's not? What about using 0 for O ?

          Don't forget $ for s and 3 for E.

            @johnhooks Don't for ! for capital i or lowercase L just to be confusing....

            Or maybe if IT changed it's practice of 8 characters, special case, upper lower to Any sentence you can think of.

                                      Just had someone here try to tell me that when you go into a directory, your secondary groups aren't taken into account. You have to change your primary group to whatever the gid is of the directory.

                                      So I demonstrated for him that secondary groups are definitely used for permissions and all he said was "I don't think that's how it works."
