ctical note both can be setup to be 'secure' but it has been my
experience that OpenBSD takes less time as long as you are comfortable in a
Unix environment.

More information would be great. A short sollution would be to use
OpenBSD pf. It not only has a good amount of documentation but is also
on of the most veritile firewall solutions arround.
Please give some more information on the configuration (like the rules
implemented).
Thanks,

Use an open firewall, not a closed one. If there are problems with an
open firewall their will be patches asap. Also, if you can help it,
don't run services or use the firewall as a deskto

Good day!
I use loopback encryption for sensitive data to make a psuedo encrypted
file system. There also is an article in Linux Journal about BestCrypt
(http://www.jetico.com/) which is a Windows and Linux FS encryption
container.
Hope I didn't misread your post :-).

I don't have any information on Sametime but I can point you to Jabber
(jabber.com and jabber.org). It is an open source IM service to be used
however you want (inside the corporation only if you wish).

ts a really good question. The only way I can see it hapening is if
either the NIC's broadcast any info over the network, a internel user
knowing the MAC addresses and crawling their way in that way, or
possibly scanning for NIC's in promiscous mode.

Can we have some linkage? I didn't find any information about it on
logwatch.org or linuxsecurity.com.

IMHO I would say OS X is more secure by default. While both can be beat
into submission (and it does take some beating and patches for XP :-D)
Apple has done a pretty good job. The whole idea of taking a open
base/kernel and build on top of it helps add a little more security
because of the ma
I belive that http://www.linuxsecurity.com/advisories/redhat.html can
help with information about Red Hats advisories. Just rememebr that Red
Hat is known for being a little more cutting edge than most other
distrobutions (ie: Slack, Debian, Libranet, Beehive, etc ...).

ge between the two hosts. You could easily then use tcpdump or
another utility to keep an eye on the packets. Just an idea.

kept the string used by the teardrop expoit to be filtered out, if you
sent something else, like "does this still work at all, joe?" it would
be exploited. Of course, it took a little time for people to find it

released a better patch.

First login either by administrator or tricking the administrator into
running a program that executes a script to give you admin access (very
simple ...). Then, format C:\ and all other drives. Go to a computer
store and buy FreeBSD or Linux. Install. You should be pretty safe now.
