Your suggestion worked fine for a single member:

From a security standpoint, the less you expose to the outside world, the
better. Join a few security newsgroups / mailing lists, and see what
(justified) paranoia REALLY looks like.
I think Lizette's response is a great one. People on the list know who

Ken makes an excellent point. In my opinion, this still falls into the
category of I don't need perfect security, just better security than my
neighbors.
I get that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, but the less

Frank's shop is trying to be more proactive in their security. In light

We recently upgraded 1.9 to 1.11, and have not seen a noticeable increase

We do a lot of ssh and FTP work. I find it useful to monitor activity,
failed logins, stuff like that.
The ISPF syslogd browser has a crap interface, but somebody must have

Is there a very polite way to question a person's integrity and motives?
Put yourself on their end of the conversation, and ask if you wouldn't
