I've seen several threads lately about security, which is cool.  I thought 
others might be interested in the below link.  I'd heard of Bastille Linux 
but I did not know about the project.  (For example, I had the idea that it 
was a separate distro; actually, it's a program made for RH/Mandrake but 
now somewhat generalized.)

Anyway, I found some of the security measures novel, like the second UID 0 
account.

And BL will also do things like password protect LILO.
