Many of us only knew Rob from his "global announcements" on IRC, but still he will be sorely missed. I only hope his death does not discourage cyclists. The more people cycling, the safer it is for cyclists everywhere, and the fewer sad incidents like this one.

I will be supporting lilo and cyclists everywhere by attending Critical Mass [wikipedia.org] to make it safer for cyclists. I encourage all slashdotters and freenoders to seek out and attend their own local Critical Mass (organised by YOU).

The next Critical Mass is Friday 29th September near you. Google it. Support cyclists.

I have quite a bit of experience with Sarbanes-Oxley and UNIX compliance. One weak area is auditing root and shared account access. Generally the developers know the application account's password (like oracle or db2) and it's really hard to audit who did what. I created the tool Enterprise Audit Shell (EAS) which centrally logs shell access and sessions in an enterprise environment. Sessions can be snooped in real-time or played back at a later time. Each session is digitally signed and transmitted via OpenSSL. Project Site http://sourceforge.net/projects/eash Support Forum http://eas.strchr.net/
