First, a point of order: if you are sincere about the "with all due respect"-part, then don't suggest that I am a cracker. > Read what you said I wrote a short post describing how to make and keep a Red Hat system secure. I glossed over some details, but I still think it was pretty good, and damn specific, given how short it was. You assert that it won't work. OK, be specific. Reread what I posted. Assume that such a RH 7.0 system has been on the internet, maintained as I described, without a firewall, for the last two years. Tell me how it got rooted during time. Be specific. -kb -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
