Quoting Deepak Jain (deepak@ai.net): > The most secure server in the world is one that is unplugged from everything > and locked in a closet somewhere. Seeing as how "availability" is considered part of security, this is a load of [snip] which gives non-security type people the wrong view of what security is. Besides, in the situation where a server is locked in a closet, all you have to do it call up the receptionist and in an urgent voice tell her to plug the machine back in and flick the powerswitch. -- I prefer the dark of the night, after midnight and before four-thirty, when it's more bare, more hollow. http://a.area51.dk/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
