I don't think someone is really erasing them either because as I had stated, I had a friend run nmap & he couldn't find anything so I'm closed to most of the script kiddies. And as to write-protecting the floppies, I do & for actually making changes to the floppies... because the floppy drives on my leaf box are of an older variety they don't play nice with the 1680 format, they can read it, but they tear up the disk writing it. All leaf disks are now written only on my programming computer with a much newer floppy drive that plays nice with 1680. This also prevents the possibilty of someone hacking the firewall & changing things while I'm trying to save stuff to the floppy (if you really want to be that paranoid). > To get to your log files, you will need the sftp.lrp > module.

I'm guessing this goes along with the ssh.lrp package (which I've already set up) & I'm guessing sftp also comes in the ssh package in most distros? Now all I need is a newbie help file on setting up a cron job... any suggestions? :) > Minh thanks much Patrick [original message snipped] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
