My prose may have been a bit ambiguous, but what I meant was that I do not allow ssh through the firewall from any host on the net to any host inside. I have one point of entry for ssh into the internal network. Telnet is not allowed on my network, nor is rlogin / rsh. > Your and Jay's assumption from the beginning is that the crackers are out to > get *your* site on a personal basis. And it is not so. That is true. In a few cases, you might be intentionally targeted. In most, you will not. Your points are well-taken, and I think that we were arguing from different sides of the issue. -- Josh Glover <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Associate Systems Administrator INCOGEN, Inc.
