Re: OLPC security project
I think this might be a very interesting topic. I'm unsure as to what has or has not been investigated though... should I concentrate my analysis more on D-Bus, Telepathy, or how the presence service implements these and the logical paths the system takes to get to the service? If I should focus more on the implementation, which files/directories should I look at? Thanks again!

Re: OLPC security project
We just (in a somewhat terse manner) posted a status for the various Bitfrost components in the wiki (See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Bitfrost#Current_Status). Perhaps you will find your inspiration there. -walter On Fri, Mar 28, 2008 at 10:37 AM, Polychronis Ypodimatopoulos [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Our presence algorithms should be evaluated in terms of security (impersonation, dos, mim, etc).

RE:Subject: OLPC security project
He Jeremy, Here's one for you (school server security audit): http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1506 A nessus scan seems like a good start but you may know better tools. I'm a volunteer so any suggestions from developers working on deployments would take higher priority.
