Hmm, I'm not sure. The question is which *is* the most secure distro, not which can be made the most secure. A vanilla Gentoo installation (I know there is no such thing with Gentoo) has no firewall installed. Any application can open any port to the wind and especially with a poor security policy has the potential to expose the box to an attack. More so than a binary distro Gentoo relies on an intelligent configuration to be secure. -- Regards, Mick
