local access rights to *nix boxes

[blu_discuss at seremeth.com (Steve Seremeth)]

Root access on all Linux boxes -- root on all other UNIX systems in this 
facility, no root on production UNIX systems (only Linux).  No windows 
domain admin rights (local admin on a lot of systems in this building 
only).  I have what I need and if I don't need it, I don't want it.

Also, if I'm supporting it, they're not having root unless we have gone 
through big pains to secure what little access they are given.  Having 
said this, I will also help anyone in the building install Linux on a 
machine that they can have root on so long as we don't have to support 
it.  Even then, we try to at least give guidance and semi-automate 
security patches.  There is at least one of those cases.
