However there are > a lot other uses. By your very admission the only appropriate use case is when users are not "hostile" and can be trusted to some extent. And that by definition makes it not appropriate for a general purpose operating system like Linux. Containers are I believe a step backwards, and we're better than that. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
