Grsec patchset brings some security features that i need in my servers, they are accessible for the clients via ssh and some of them gets hacked, they try to exploit the system and other things... and the project has patchet for the 3.1.8 kernel, but is a test branch, the stable branch is based on the 2.6.32 longterm (http://grsecurity.net/download_stable.php) > Just backporting a single driver, usually isn't that easy, as it > relies on other parts of the kernel. Indeed , but my problem now is to understand why still patching my kernel with the modifications of a CentOS 6 (just bnx2x driver) when i boot the kernel it still show me the old release version, the patch is applied but looks like that i'm missing some based on the firmware files that CentOS has on their kernel, thats why i asked you guys from the mailing list if there is some documentation that cold help me understand this > good luck, Thanks Greg _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
