I think it is important to understand that this is a sort of brainstorming. Bottom-up, top-down, inside-out, outside-in, wherever you get it, throw it on the wall (or mailing list :) and get people thinking. If it helps, pretend you were just hired as "The Security Guy" of some company that has Linux in their infrastructure. The guy that hired you doesn't know anything about security and trusts that you will take care of it all. What ever your approach, you have ideas on what you would do. Share them with this community and get everyone thinking about it. It is a bit chaotic at the moment, but it will get better... maybe ;) Cheers! _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.lpi.org/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
