[ale] Korn/Bash rights question

users can mount and unmount with the proper flags in /etc/fstab.


There are no more suid shell scripts any more.  This fixed a security
hole.

I think that a user has to be able to read a script to execute it.


Executable binary files do not have these restrictions and can be
suid and execute only (no-read).
