Do you know if there is a port for Bastille ?

Bastille Linux is a Hardening and Reporting/Auditing Program which
enhances the security of a
Linux box, by configuring daemons, system settings and firewalling.
It currently functions on
most major Linux distributions as well as Mac OSX and HP-UX

http://sourceforge.net/projects/bastille-linux/

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=403

Doesn't appear to be one.
[/mnt]# port list bast*
bastet                         @ 0.41           games/bastet

"port search bastille" would be better, but that too shows no Bastille port.


What does bastille do that OS X doesn't, out of the box? Does the OS X firewall compare to what's available for Linux?

There are probably a lot more linux-savvy people on this list: I haven't looked at it in years (The BSDs are where I look for UNIX-y goodness that I can't get from OS X).

It looks like Bastille Linux has just changed names to Bastille Unix, since a) they temporarily lost their domain name to a squatter, and b) Bastille Linux has worked on HP-UX and Mac OS X for years.

So, I imagine it should be possible to create a portfile for Bastille Unix. Someone who cares about and knows the software should feel free to do so. Until such a person is found, a ticket could be filed for this request.
