This is a hard one to call for me, given military security requirements?

You should logout if you leave your screen. it should produce a password protected screensaver after 5 minutes inactivity. If I need your screen I just re-boot?

The system should enforce a password change every 14 days maximum.

It takes all of 5 minutes to reset a user password, including the phone call? So that works out at 12 x $25 =$300 per hour....................Hell...I might just take the paycut for that job...when can I start?

Guess I should be the Dean...My Rules:

To use the system you pay $100 "caution money" per term.......costs you $20 to get reset if you "forget" your password, more than 5 and your parents have to buy the school a new computer, or you are grounded, and they have to get you private lessons..................If you "forget" your simple password...maybe you should be throwing trash, rather than wasting a space in an educational establishment?...you certainly won't learn any of the more complex stuff you are told ( I use the word "told" deliberately: "taught" implies information retention?)

I am not sorry...this time I think that your school is wrong....they are encouraging lax security at an early age? That is NOT what AO sponsors?

Of course if loser organisations contract out (that would explain $25)......then it should cost them $5000 to even get to log-on?

I DO NOT condone lax security on the grounds of cost or ineffectuality............been there, read the book, seen the film, got the T-shirt............not impressed.


Just my opinion


Cheers
