Hi, whatever Joe uses it must be somewhere up2date. And needs some minimal security. Using VPN or not is a big difference. Cracker Jimboy needs to crack/hack/socialengineering your vpn settings. Thats a big step for him - unless Joe uses some very old methods for his vpn. Simply natting a vpn port to the world - is a bad idea - whatever port your natting everyone who scans for open ports finds the real service behind that very soon and very easy. I dont think any Joe on linux is using tools like faillock or something else. Maybe some using something like iptables to only allow ssh from special ips only. So what do you expect me to do? Tell joe what do to on his 512MB NAS ? Tell joe dont do it unless you really know what your doing? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DJanGo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1516 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107165 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
