Would a typical non-expert computer user know how to do something that
actually requires this? No. ;-)
If we assume that the sysadmin is sufficiently more knowledgable than
you that you're asking somebody else who to keep them out, you're more
or less doomed to failure. (Unless the person you ask knows your system
well and comes up with some damned good advice!)
