Yes, this list certainly isn't the Linux Security faq-o-matic. This list is intended to be for general security issues as they pertain to Linux, including cryptography, firewalls & border patrol, research, and even security trends. What do people think of the recent influx of security vulnerabilities? Does it seem like there is an abnormal amount of advisories issued recently, including the gzip, xchat, glibc, at, sudo, among others? They are all indeed very serious, prompting some to speculate on just how secure (or insecure, as the case may be) Linux really is. Dave -- Dave Wreski Corporate Manager Guardian Digital, Inc.
