Hi all, Yes another lamen question from me, when I login to command line before I su to root I get a text message saying I have new mail. How/Where do I read this, do I use pine?
Hi Todd,Please don't take this as a snub; it is not! Are you still logging in via telnet? IS your RaQ behind a firewall? Do you block port 23 from other IP traffic?
When I started operating a Cobalt, I was making mistakes like that. I now know enough to ask these questions and help you solve some seemingly wide-open security holes you have.
I have probably learned 50% of my Unix/Linux skills lurking around this group and listening to some of the more predominant posters here.
Your security affects our security: Infected zombie servers attack other servers. If you need some assistance securing your server, please request it and keep watching this group!
You may reply to me off-list, should you feel slighted by this or if I can assist you!
Cheers, Glenn
