I have nothing useful to add here other than the fact that I am
really loving this dialog. I like to see things being hashed
out like this.
Pierre, I really appreciate your delving into issues here. And, of
course I appreciate all that Corinna has done with ntsec. I am sure
that she regrets ever listening to me when I suggested that she do
something with Windows permissions years ago. Not that I am trying
to insert any claim to helping with ntsec. This is all a black box
to me.
Anyway, I think between the two of you, we'll eventually have things
working as well as humanly possible on Windows. I'm happy to see
you working on these issues.
My 2c.
