IBM, Sun, and others have used it extensively. Not surprisingly there are a few exploits, most old and forgotten however there are companies that do not upgrade their versions quickly. There was a worm if you had gcc installed more than 1 year ago. Due to the power of Apache there are several sites that have holes by the application and few make that distinction. I probably wouldn't as a security expert so that people focus on the web server first, applications and all. -- Thanks KenF OpenOffice.org developer -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Are you sure it's ext2? Could it possibly be ext3, or some other kind of

Have you tried doing the following if you *are* sure it's ext2

It's possible something has been damaged ont he partition, and an fsck
will fix it.
Try running one and see what happens.

[SLUG] allowing/disabling ftp access by user type, how ?
RH73, ProFTPD I have several users that run web pages, they need ftp access ; then, I have more users whose mail we get, and, they pop their mail off the server. neither users have shell access, with /shell/false (whatever the correct syntax is) so, everything is OK, but, potentially, my email users could ftp to their home directory I'd like to prevent ftp access for mail users, but, leave as is (allowed) to 'webmasters' users. where do I do that ? somewhere in RedHat stuff ? ProFTP stuff ? ? tried googling, so far without any success to this issue say, once upon a time, when I typed 'google.com' I got google.com; now, I type 'google.com' but, I get 'google.com.au'; who/where does that ?
