Maybe it's because it's now easier to install a Linux server in a default less secure mode? The Inq report lacks details as to what Linux distro the "hacked" site was running (if it was indeed running Linux). And zone-h doesn't have separate stats for different distros. Unlike the case with MS and the BDS (Open/Free/Net). It would be nice to run an article (though it might lead to a flame war) about the most secure Linux server distro, fee-free or commercial. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
