Thanks for all your replies, they have been all very helpfull. I just have one, maybe two questions left: I read that it was best to move the tripwire database to a read-only medium (floppy or cdrom). I used the defaults of the tripwire-2.3 ports and ended up with 3MB database. How did you guys configure your tripwire? Is it better to clean up the configuration and by that shrink the database to fit on a floppy? If so, what HAS TO stay, what can be removed? Or is it better to stuff the database on a CD-RW and burn a new one everytime you change stuff? Thanks a lot in advance, Jan PS: If this does not belong here, please tell me. I think it is somewhat security related, but maybe it would fit in newbie,too ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
