Hi list! Is harden_suse not maintained anymore?
From the SuSE Linux 8.1 distro:
From all this I conclude that it is not maintained anymore? I used it to build a firewall and would like to use it again when reinstalling it, but ... Is Marc Heuse not working anymore at SuSE? Is anyone maintaining his scripts? At http://www.suse.de/~marc/SuSE.html the last updated script is from
# head /usr/share/doc/packages/harden_suse/CHANGES
v3.5 12.06.01 (gamma release)
* f*ck, I missed a / ... thanks to matthew@psychohorse.com for
reporting
v3.4 10.06.01 (gamma release)
* wont disable some special SuSE 7.2 stuff: CRYPTO_FILESYSTEMS
IDLED, POWERTWEAKD, PPTPD, IJB, IPPL, ARGUS, etc.
v3.3 06.05.01 (gamma release)
* wont disable SNORT, ADSL, NESSUSD and many many other things
now
which either do not affect security or are security daemons
AND from /usr/lib/harden_suse/harden_suse-3.5.pl
