Re: [cobalt-users] Qube 2 on the internet

[andrew smith <aksmith@xxxxxxx>]

Yes, I have a static IP and my ISP seems friendly enough to allow port 
80 access.
So, the general feeling is, once I've upgraded my Qube 2, to the latest 
pkg updates, its ok to to put on the internet as a webserver. Is there 
anything I need to be aware of within Apache?
Is a hackable qube? or pretty secure?

regards,
mac.
