Hi
Was wondering about the implications of updating current SUSE 7 servers to SUSE 7.1
Don't think this question is aimed at me but my own comments... If you use any security in a Unix system - and you shouldn't do things any other way - then it's a good idea to stay with what you've got. That way you know it works and also what could go wrong. If you update to iptables you might find that you have an attemped break in or worse still a proper break in and you won't be able to work out what to do next. I use anything I can get hold of with my dialup network at home and I find that there are several attempts each week to break into my workstation or net facing box. So, if that's what someone can do to a dialup system then what's going to happen to a box that's connected all the time. Just my 10 pen'orth :)) Thanks Richard http://www.sheflug.co.uk
