Re: [suse-security] Bastille and other Linux distros
IMHO any tool/script which offers SuSE users another choice when armouring their system would naturally be welcome :) Regards, Michael "Niki Rahimi" <narahimi@us.

I would like to get feedback from the discussion list on this project. Would this be something the SuSE community would be receptive to? In case you're not familiar with Bastille, their web site is at www.bastille-linux.org. If you have any further questions about this, please let me know. Thanks, Niki A.

IMHO - more tools are always good but the time it takes to get more tools that do the samething could be spent on either enhancing current tools or developing entirely new tools. michael.ryan@storm.ie wrote:
