Re: [suse-security] Re: Openssh + security

Hi,

Please check if you are running X windows and if there is a screensaver active! Don't run X on servers!!

Why not? This is, what is the problem to run a X server on a server machine? I understand that it may take lots of resources, so I wont run KDE to say. But some packages do require (as far as I know) a X server (Oracle does, if I remember correctly). Is there anything wrong to run windowmaker? (i mean, security issues, not just performance issues). Thanks in advance for your comments! -- Saludos, miguel
