Should you disable 'sync' and 'who' commands?
I read somewhere that 'sync' and 'who' commands in linux should be disabled. While i can understand that for the 'who' command, why so for 'sync'?
I can find sync and who as one of shell commands, whereas also in /bin/sync and /usr/bin/who. Are the shell commands and those in bin directory meant to serve the same purpose?
Finally, how can i disable these commands?
