I remember in the long and distance Novell being attacked for providing
'useful' tools such as the one you are doing. The difference between yourself
and Novell is that you will have a targeted and maybe educated market,
while Novell ends up with the problems caused by 2 many sys-admin staff
just enabling the feature without understanding it correctly. After all one
person's corrupt application is another person's auditing tool :)
