11/18   Has anyone had trouble getting xlock to work with shadow
        passwords?  How do I get around it not knowing where to look
        for the passwords?  Having it setuid does not work.  -John
        \_ Hmm, I managed to get version 4.01 to work with shadow
           passwds. Maksure that on top of making the binary setuid
           that the binary is owned by root. -- marc
        \_ /usr/openwin/bin/xlock works fine with shadow passwords.
