Yes it is thanks. Very very good talk from the professor of security 
engineering at Cambridge University's computer lab. I would really like 
to go and work for him :-)

Also a good talk from the head of security at SLAC (Stanford Linear 
Accelerator Centre) who gave a very good overview of computer security 
in different contexts, and how poor a lot of security systems are.

On 99% of systems it's in /bin, so that's where I put it by default. 
Don't forget that you area allowed to edit these .conf files, and 
occasionally you will need to do so for your systems.
