Text from bug update: Here's the Intro and Chapter 1. If you reference the outline I posted a while ago, you'll notice that kernel hardening is supposed to be chapter 2. Since that doc is still in the works, I'm going to jump right into chapter 3, and if I can assist on the Kernel Compilation doc, I will. Will post more as it is available. Link to bug: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129957 I think that the kernel compilation doc should be referenced in this doc, but I'm not sure that it should be the only text on the subject. I envision the reference to be for people who don't know how to compile/recompile a kernel, and my Chapter 2, will discuss things that can be included or left out to make the system more secure (for example, a discussion of building the kernel without modules). Perhaps the kernel compilation doc should cross reference this section of my doc? Anyhow, in the meantime, I will continue on with Chapter 3: Securing the Filesystem. An html view of the doc, as well as ongoing developments (in html format), will still be available at the link below. Please provide direct feedback, criticisms, praise, jeers, etc. to the list, or my email off-list, if desired. http://members.cox.net/tuxxer Thanks. -Charlie -- -- tuxxer <tuxxer(a)cox(dot)net> <== tuxxer's gpg key fingerprint ==> 57EB F948 76AE 25BC E340 EFA9 FAF6 E1AC F1E1 1EA1
