James,

Although I agree that is really easy to make a mess with an OS like Unix,
I'm not sure if I would be so "cavalier" in my attitude respect OS/400s
commands. Just think, for instance, how easy is to write CLRPFM or even
PWRDWNSYS (we had a junior admin do that to us to our production iSeries
(520) some years ago).

Yes, but CLRPFM is something that anybody with the appropriate authorities to a given file can do (and will only do it if it can get an exclusive lock on the file), and PWRDWNSYS, as I recall, asks for confirmation.
