I found another security bug.
This one is only in Interactive UNIX 2.2,
and lets you make /bin and /etc writable.

I'm not going to post details, but instead call on Interactive
and all other System V/386 vendors to post to this newsgroup
instructions for reporting serious bugs, and a promise that
serious bugs reports will be acknowledged.

I have reported other serious bugs (cause crashes) to Interactive.
We don't have any support contract, but they did not even acknowledge
that they received the bug reports.
