BOSTON. There are number of access control systems available for Linux but which one is easier to use?
At LinuxCon, Z. Cliffe Schreuders (pic left) a doctoral candidate at Murdoch University in Australia presented the findings of a small usability study he conducted into Linux access control systems.
