of important files by replacing rm with a wrapper, which checks the
given arguments against a configurable list of exclusions for files and
directories that should never be removed.

Users who attempt to delete one of these protected files or directories will
not be able to do so and will be shown a warning message instead.
.
Protected paths can be set both at the site and user levels.
