1.74 tb 265: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mount.8">mount(8)</a> option.
1.36 deraadt 266: Because there are still too many ports which violate W^X, the
1.79 bentley 267: installer mounts the <code>/usr/local</code> filesystem with
268: <code>wxallowed</code>. This allows the base system to be more
269: secure as long as <code>/usr/local</code> is a separate filesystem.
1.36 deraadt 270: If you use no W^X violating programs, consider manually
271: revoking that option.

1.63 jung 279: re-links libc.so on startup, placing the objects in a random order.
1.74 tb 280: <li>In the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/getpwnam.3">getpwnam(3)</a>
1.63 jung 281: family of functions, stop opening the shadow database by default.

1.14 bluhm 291: of the hash function with a timing attack.
292: <li>To work against SYN flooding attacks the administrator can
293: change the size of the hash array now.
1.74 tb 294: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a>
1.79 bentley 295: <code>-s -p tcp</code> shows the relevant information to tune

1.74 tb 297: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a>
1.79 bentley 298: <code>net.inet.tcp</code>.
1.33 vgross 299: <li>The administrator can require root privileges for binding to some TCP
300: and UDP ports with
1.74 tb 301: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a>
1.79 bentley 302: <code>net.inet.tcp.rootonly</code> and
1.74 tb 303: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a>
