as an additional question to this how insecure is a machine with *NO* login software? (ie. there's just a promt with 'hit enter to activate this console). the machine is properly firewalled and doesn't allow ANY connections to it from the outside world... what other areas do i have to lock down in this case? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
