Hi,

I currently have a FreeBSD server and provide services like apache/ssl, pop/
ssl, smtp/ssl...
I don't have physical access to the box.
If I just :

- update openSSL port
- recompile every port that use openSSL (openSSH, Apache+mod_ssl, ....)

will I be safe from remote attack ?

Is the make-world compulsory to guaranty security from outside the box, or 
is it just the way to guaranty the security from both inside and outside ?

I'm not paranoid about local exploit, only 2 people have a shell on the box 
and they also have the root passwd (my partners).
A remote make-world is not a manipulation I whould be happy to do :/

thanks,

patpro
