So far I have the following setup:
hosts.deny:
ALL:ALL
hosts.allow:
ALL: my_work.domain
My intention is to prevent everyone from the 'outside' from reaching my
box. I do realize that anyone in my_work.domain would also be able to get
at it.
Is this secure?
No!
If this is indeed correct could someone tell me why I would need/want a
firewall
/me considers the two attempted port scans against this computer this
weekend
I wouldn't connect to the 'net without one. YMMV.
