References: <3AE8ABBA.7E0B19C8@colltech.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org :The FreeBSD Security How-to (http://people.freebsd.org/~jkb/howto.html) :linked off of freebsd.org/security/ is a bit out of date (it seems to :apply to 3.x systems). Is anyone working on producing an updated :version? If not, I may take on a project similar to the existing :HOW-TO. I was thinking about producing documents on how to secure :-RELEASE systems on the -STABLE branch (starting w/ 4.3-RELEASE). By :dealing with the release systems, I could present specific steps and :procedures instead of having to offer blanket advice. I'll probably :start some of the ground-level research for this when I get my 4.3 CDs :and then get back to you guys with a basic document for feedback later. :Anyone know of an on-going effort that I should join instead of starting :this on my own? : :Thanks, : :Daniel I'm working on a two-part DaemonNews series about security. It could probably be adapted. I recommend waiting until the series comes out (a month from now and a month after that) and then adapting as necessary. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
