Hi list! After running "harden_suse-3.5.pl YES" I compared my old rc.config file an the new one. One of the differences found was at the variable PERMISSION_SECURITY. The old value was: PERMISSION_SECURITY="secure paranoid local" and the new values is: PERMISSION_SECURITY="secure local" From the harden_suse-3.5.pl script: line 151: $perms = "secure paranoid"; and line 165: $perms = "secure local"; Isn't this a bug? Shouldn't PERMISSION_SECURITY be set to "secure paranoid" or "secure paranoid local" ? Thanks, richard -- Richard Ems ... e-mail: r.ems@gmx.net ...
