If it doesn't break the apps you want to use, it would prbably be useful. Note the last line of the Project Goals, "These solutions will be available in Gentoo once they've been tested for security and stability by the Hardened team." In OpenBSD, these things are there by default. They are tested and they work. They are part of the default install, and if there are problems, they are fixed. I wonder how much support you'd get if say, you install mozilla, or kde, and it doesn't work on hardened gentoo, but it does work without the hardened stuff. -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
