ATTENTION: there seems to be a possible bug (or did i misconfigure harden_suse)?? After running harden_suse no remote login to my machine was possible. The fault can be found in /etc/hosts.deny cat /etc/hosts.deny # # This config file was changed by the harden_suse script to enforce a # strict security on your system. # This configuration was changed on the Sat Apr 14 13:36:26 CEST 2001. # harden_suse v3.2 (07-April-2001) by Marc Heuse <marc@suse.de> # # Think twice before changing an option. # # See tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5) for a description. http-rman : ALL EXCEPT LOCAL ALL: ALL EXCEPT localhost ^^^^^^ *UNCOMMENT* this entry, otherwise it won't be possible to log in using ssh or telnet Bye, Gunther btw: sorry, that I didn't provide my real name before - it is Gunther Stammwitz -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: gstammw [mailto:gstammw@gmx.net] Gesendet: Samstag, 14.
