Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there any way to compile in the securelevel in the kernel? Setting it in rc fiels at boot time is risky, cause a possible hacker could just modify the startup scripts. Another question, is it possible to lower the securelevel without having to reboot? Like going to singleusermode or something? I read something about that's the way it should be but it doesn't work due to a bug...? --------------------------------- Frode Nordahl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
