  48 The \fIlppasswd\fR command is installed setuid to root. While
  49 every attempt has been made to make it secure against exploits
  50 that could grant super-user privileges to unprivileged users,
  51 paranoid system administrators may wish to disable or change the
  52 ownership of the program to an unprivileged account.
