Sorry for the double post, but I didnot get my posts except when you replied!!
I understand your point about the network layout public availability. But this would fall under "security through obscurity" wouldn't it ;)
About, the scarce workforce, I have tried to join many projects, but got lost! For instance, my last attempt was at helping with the firewall re-write. I contacted Luke, who was very responsive and helpful, albeit a bit busy. Me not knowing anything about the servers, the network layout, or even the requirements for the firewall, I just couldn't do anything to help :(
Well, perhaps, I should be tackling some priority 2 problems (to be simpler & of lower urgency), such as the "aliases" issue. I have no problem following this task if someone would tell me what needs to be done. Ideally, I would click on the project name, to get a detailed page saying:
1- Login to x.xx.xx.xx using some auth account
2- Query the ldap server at yy.yy.yy.yy
3- Write a script to verify all aliases against /etc/mail/aliases
Unfortunately, such a page doesnot yet exist. Any pointers to how I can go ahead ?
Best Regards
