I recently had a network audit, which had the following to say about my
LInux machines. Wanted to get some feedback from the list. It seems rather
bogus. I never heard of this. Can somebody provide details. Is this
legimitate or no:

"The linux system accepts the SLIST command from outside the agency to
display internal routing tables. This poses a serious security risk..."

Have you compared the price of Caldera/SCO's Tarentella for Linux to
the price it would cost you for MS's own solution?  T runs on Linux
but also lends support for other os's in connectivity.   

Secondly, VNC runs on Linux, HP-UX and other unix, as well as Windows
and gives you a pc-anywhere like connection to the above os's.
Dial out, then run VNC to receive the remote desktop on your local PC.
