Please lets not do that. I teach a course in "Advanced Unix Security" (although all the students aren't *that* advanced) and we start out with a "base" system, add apps to it for security, and configure for specific secure functionality. I'll let you guess what that base system is. :) IOW, I think the level of the book is just right. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
