I understand that in the world of Linux network security, generally older = worser (more insecure). So, I see that Freesco, a small Linux gateway/router distro that seems to be actively maintained, is using a kernel from the 2.0.x line - 2.0.38 (I understand that the most recent 2.0.x kernel is 2.0.39). Is Freesco considered an insecure gateway/router distro because it uses this older kernel line, or can it be expected to provide adequate network security? What would be the risks involved in using such a distro? Would the security savants on this list recommend against using it?
