Well that's what I'm working toward among other things. I also want a good user experience. I've been running opera on a slackware machine at DCTV and haven't had any problems. Expect no one but me knows how to turn it on and off. But that's not to say it couldn't have been more secure. I mainly dealt with trying to make it run lean enough as it was a really slow machine. Underneath everything I have four partitions: /dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults,ro 1 1 /dev/hda7 /home ext2 defaults,nodev,noexec,nosuid 1 2 /dev/hda6 /tmp ext2 defaults,nodev,noexec,nosuid 1 2 /dev/hda5 /var ext2 defaults,nodev,noexec,nosuid 1 2 The longest most archaic root password I can come up with. The box stripped of all binaries expect what is needed. no xterm, rxvt, etc. Most likely the X wrapper will delete everything from /home and /tmp and repopulate from a template. I may remove syslogd and make /var read-only if I get really paranoid. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
