rwatson 2003/09/27 22:21:23 PDT FreeBSD src repository Modified files: usr.sbin/sysinstall config.c Log: Tweak "system security profiles: (1) Don't modify the configuration of the NFS server as a result of selecting a profile. We already explicitly prompt for the NFS server configuration during install, and the user may not get much advance notice that we're turning it off again. Instead, use profiles (for better or for worse) only for security tuning. (2) Don't modify the sendmail setting as part of the security profile: use the default from /etc/defaults/rc.conf rather than explicitly specifying. Note that the default in /etc/defaults/rc.conf is more conservative than the explicit rc.conf entry added by sysinstall during install, as it does not permit SMTP delivery. (3) Update "congratulations on your profile" text to reflect these changes. Note that security profiles now affect only the securelevel and sshd settings. My leaning would be to make sshd an explicit configuration option, move securelevels to the security menu, and drop security profiles entirely. However, that requires more plumbing of sendmail than I'm currently willing to invest. We may want to add a "permit SMTP delivery" question to the install process.
