Terry,
Install Nessus, and test away. There are on-line services too, but they
usually want money to test you external connection thoroughly.

If I understand your question, one place you can go to
is http://www.grc.com/default.htm

Look for ShieldsUP!, click the link and follow the
directions there.  You'll need to do this from one of
your machines inside your firewall.

[leaf-user] Bering uClibc LEAF user says THANKS!

2004-12-19 Thread Terry Erickson
   Big thanks to the LEAF developers. Words cannot describe the
gratitude. Where would human race be right now if not for you? 
   - - I live in Astoria Oregon. Last week I had a blast for a couple
days setting up Bering uClibc  - I had used Dachstein awhile a couple
years ago but it was still a learning experience for me. LRP has been a
GREAT learning tool for me. Whew. The more you learn, the more we learn
there is to learn.
I'm gonna keep my eyes on the mail list here and maybe I can learn
more and eventually maybe help someone!
   Now I want to learn about how to test how secure my setup is. Any
suggestions? I know next to nothing technically about network security;
I just barely made it through installing Bering uClibc here but I'm
relatively confident I did it right, thanks to the good documentation.
Still there's no reason why I shouldn't make sure.
