RedHat has the strangest concept of security
I've ever run across.
They close doors that should be open - sendmail refuses connections on
port 25 by default - and leave others wide open. Like running
[unconfigured] apache on every install.
That is the point. If you do a carefull
setup, install fixes, ... you
can make Linux as secure as any *BSD. One of the reasons why I prefere
to use a non-Linux OS on a non-PeeCee machine as firewall, is that the
script kiddys don't know how to hack, but only know how to use the
newest exploit... And of course there is a butload of other reasons to
use *BSD instead of Linux...
Debian Rulez
...if you want to be a LUser
(Linux User) ;-)
