 Don't worry about me :-). My firewall (6.2) has a minimal install + OpenSSH. 
Only thing I needed to update for that machine was rpm (when I installed 
OpenSSH, iirc).
 This was more of a theoretical question why 7.0 servers would be affected by 
this worm (which I believe they are not).

                                        Bye,

                                        Leonard.
