Some customer concerns are irrational. Given.
But he who pays the piper calls the tune.
And the ruling principle of technical neophytes seems to be FUD: Fear,
Uncertainty and Disinformation.
(FUD for Thawte, as someopne aptly put it.)
In those instances where calm, rational explanation do not prevail, you just
do what the guy pays for. Absolutely no sense in making sense where there is
no sense.

Bottom line: He does not want certain processes to be legible to someone
with telnet or FTP access. This concern stems from certain haphazard
arrangements on a server he was on previously.
