Quick question: i read that a guy with a DSL connection running Linux found he was an unwilling participant in some hacker attacks, or at least could have been. Apparently someone hacked his box and left a script there. For frequent/extended ppp connections from my laptop, should i consider going through the trouble of setting up a firewall? -=> jm <=- Please CC me on all replies ------------------------------------------------------- "The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you have burned so very, very brightly."
