09:37.45mozratping Leeds
09:37.56mozratHello everyone
09:37.59Leedsmozrat: you pong!
09:38.05mozratAhh good
09:38.11mozratHow are you Mr Leeds?
09:38.17Leeds(confusingly, my gf's Chinese name is ping)
09:38.25mozratheh
09:38.28LeedsI'm not bad... a bit tired, but looking forward to going away next week
09:38.39mozratCan I pick your Solaris brain on an easy question?
09:38.45Leedsit took her ages to realise that when I pinged her, I wasn't calling her by name :)
09:38.57mozratping ping
09:39.07Leedsyou can try, but I haven't touched Solaris since approximately the day I left Sun
09:40.19mozratAudit season again
09:40.36mozratI'm being asked to justify why I have the following users on my system
09:40.49bilarhinterestingly (or not - you decide) "pong" in saarf east london slang can mean "stink/stinky" :)
09:40.56mozratsuch as bin sys adm daemon
09:41.15mozratand the answer "It will break if I remove them of course" doesn't appear to be good enough
09:41.38mozratand Googling 'solaris sys user' doesn't really give me a good one-liner for them
09:41.41Leedsbilarh: that's what I meant when I told mozrat he ponged
09:41.59bilarhoh right :)
09:42.19bilarhsomeone hit me with the clue bat?
09:42.25mozratbilarh: He's right. I do smell atrocious
09:42.26Leedsmozrat: sorry, I can't really give you a formal answer to that... I could handwave about the principle of multi-user systems, but I suspect it wouldn't help
09:43.06mozratI suppose I could use the find command to see what adm and bin owns on the filesystem
09:43.20mozratWhy can't auditors just accept that they are there for a good reason... :(
09:44.15Leedsbecause that's not what they're paid to do?
09:44.53mozrat*nod*
09:47.47mozratBesides boring Unix questions - what is happening in the Life of Leeds? Where are you off to next week?
09:47.51mozratFrance?
09:48.00LeedsSpain, via a day in Paris
09:48.11mozratbilarh: Hello by the way - haven't spoken to you before
09:49.08Leedsprobably do a day in Morocco
09:49.24bilarhmozrat: hmm, i've seen you about :)
09:49.31bilarhbut hello, none the less
09:49.47bilarhmorocco++
09:49.51mozratbilarh: I haven't been here for a while
09:50.05mozratLeeds: are you still meeting Sabine?
09:50.15Leedsmozrat: nope, she's dumped me
09:50.22mozrat:(
09:50.27mozratibot kick sabinef72
09:50.27ibotACTION kicks sabinef72
09:52.05Leedsshe's got someone else coming into town this weekend... it's fine, I planned to go to Paris anyway, not just to meet her :)
09:52.50bilarhis ping coming with you?
09:53.08bilarhi.e. will you have the pleasure of doing all the touristy things again for the umpteenth time? :D
09:53.50Leedsyes... very very touristy - and time-cramped - day in Paris, then more relaxed 10 days or so in Spain, with some day trips
