[cobalt-users] Telnet access question

[alonsog@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Is it normal that a virtual site's admin user with shell access is able to
navigate beyond his domain's folder? (while under a Telnet Session). I
havent tried modifying any files because I'm barely learning the ropes, but
it seemed strange to me that I was able to see all the directory tree
instead of just my domain's portion of it while logged in as a virtual
site's admin user. Fortunately, I am that user (also the Raq's only
administrator so far) but it scares me to know that if I give shell access
to any of my admin users he'll be able to make changes beyond his domain.
Does this present a security risk? is it normal? Please comment...

Thank you very much,
Alonso Garcia
