Are Linux boxes vulnerable to be used by botnets?
Theoretically yes, but not really. If there were a security hole that
could be exploited someone could take advantage of it to deliver a payload
that would turn GNU/Linux boxen into trojans.
Linux boxen are very usable as bots. I am currently involved in a forensic
investigation of a compromised system that was used as part of a bot-net.
Don't fool yourself into thinking you are any safer than Windows users. You
will simply be pwnt by moderately more talented hackers is all. Lock

Port knocking is really useful, but you need to have something on the remote
client
I now strictly use ssh key authentication for my home system, with a
password on the key of course.
One thing about port knocking - I have found in the past that an
extremely fast port scanner, such as scanrand, can hit all the ports
fast enough to get me to an ssh prompt on a machine using it.

You make a few good points. I still feel bringing people from other counties

If US talent is not available then we need to fix that by creating an
