cf.users

Whether or not you perform any special services for users, with or without their consent is entirely a matter of local policy. In a school or college situation, users are often uncooperative and some are even irresponsible. This file shows you what you could do in an environment with inexperienced users, but please don't feel as though you have to be this totalitarian.
