I probably should have stated that allowing a complete stranger to have access to your mu install is a risk. I know the mu installs that we host, all of the admins know each other, have for some time, and I believe there's a bit of trust there. We've only had one issue and that was with a removal of a plugin that may or may not have caused an issue. (ie The buddy removed it after not being able to contact the admin, the admin was annoyed, it wasn't clear what was causing the issue, and we couldn't dupe it.) Do remember though that you would have complete access to the buddy's site as well. That's a big cloud preventing folks from doing anything bad I would think. I know I would trust Andrea with one of my sites and I would think she would trust me with one of hers if she and Ron were going on vacation. You could also limit access to each other's forums as a moderator and go no further. At least as a start. That’s a valid point and I thank you for the comment.

With how fast the web moves, one screw up from an admin could potentially be hurting you for months.
