-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The actual reasoning behind your statement is that since NT 4.0's inception...it was touted as an operating system that can be administered by anybody. i.e....there is no experience needed to administer a NT node and/or network. Given this selling point, it and the various systems since; have been developed under the premise that it should be easily deployable within a normal network environment. Which, i hate to admit......has been achieved. Linux, as well as the other *NIX variants; had originally been developed for the more advanced hobbyists and IT professionals. With this in mind; it has been deployed in a more secure manner (on average). This is becomingly increasingly untrue though......check out the uproar about the OS X phenom. Thus, the analogy of an insecure Windows environment is true.....but not for the reasons as ususally stated. On Tuesday 17 September 2002 17:49, Rowan Reid wrote:

Anyone have any clues about this program ? I've tried all
the obvious
telnet / ssh tricks, and no go.
On a side note linux is no more secure than windows, despight the hooplah. What makes a secure system is proper security auditing. Typically our servers Our patched or reconfigured once a month to fix some possible exploit. Windows on The other hand likes to give the impression that it is secure out the box which it is Not. In my experience MS is a little slower at providing bug fixes than linux vendours.
