I don't think my last post should have been ranked down there with the other "1" scores, with people mouthing off Microsoft.

The story came out back in February, and I am not sure if anything has been done about it, but Novell released information regarding the security exploit you were concerned about (namely, Administrators with permissions above you accessing information below them in the tree).
Although it reads a little bit like a pro-Netware column, the article at:

Hope it helps.
