Noel continues his chronicle of a cracker attack on his LAN. |
|
In part 4, he notes that even local user vulnerabilities cannot |
|
be overlooked because you must assume that an attacker will |
|
eventually figure out a login/password. As part of his conclusions, |
|
he mentions he would like to explore OpenBSD for systems that |
|
need user accounts. The first three parts also make for interesting |
|
reading for all system administrators. |

Security Portal founder Jim Reavis calls OpenBSD "Linux's Linux". We're not |
|
sure what it means, but he was making the point that public scrutiny of |
|
source code helps security, so it must be a compliment. |
