You know, I've never thought of stopping access to the Internet from the servers. This is a new thought for me but it does appear to make some sense. I mean - the server would surely need to be allowed to make SMTP connections (formmail etc.) to the outside world and I guess one or two others (mind = blank) but stopping access to the outside would be relatively easy using firewall.... Hmmmm ... You have me thinking! Regards Chris -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
