Can't see many Linux, or BSD, admins, being happy with "self-updating ring-0 proprietary software". That's very much a Windows culture thing.

Did you hear about it when that same software had that same problem on its Linux endpoint system a couple of months ago?

Well, me neither. I can't tell how much of if is "anybody willing to use something like that will also want a Windows server" (crazy people), or "nobody that wants Linux would accept it". Those two are not exactly the same, and I don't know how well the auditors that keep pushing this kind of shit into companies interact with the culture.

Yer, I didn't, but this does seams a very Windows'y way of doing things, so can't see it widely done in Linux/BSD/Unix world.
