Hi Andreas,
I first started to read Marc's article abpout setting up a secure webserver [ http://www.suse.de/en/linux/webserver/index.html ]
The biggest change to the system was probably running harden_suse which I did in the following way: harden_suse y y y y y n y n y y This seemed to have worked quite well.
I think using harden_suse might invoke problems using XServer and any Windowmanager. Anyway due to demands from our Websphere guy he wants to be able to access the Websphere GUI remotely.
Strangely, after doing harden_suse I can't launch KDE2 anymore KDE instead works fine. Guess I have run into some typically newbie problems here by trying to figure things out which I don't completely understand at the moment ;-) Any hints?
So my main question seems to be "How to use an XServer remotely and still have a 'secure' box?"
Sounds like a contradiction, I know ;-) -- Andreas Otto OgilvyInteractive | Floor 2, Canberra House 315 - 317 Regent Street | London W1B 2HS Reception +44 207 299 3434 | Fax +44 207 631 5050 http://www.ogilvy.com
