Thank you for those who replied . . most appreciated . . Now . . . how to secure Linux? umm . . Does the built in Firewall in Mandrake suffice ? Cheers |

There is actually only a single firewall for linux which is part of the kernel (called iptables). All the other stuff is just an interface to it. So the filewall is fine as long as its setup correctly. The only real problem with the mandrake on is the lack of options. |
