My box has been scanned very aggressivly this past week. I've got some concerns over the security of my box especially since I've had to open up the incoming UDP on all ports > 1024 and now have also enabled IDENT in order to use IRC. Is it even safe to run ident? Do I have other options or must I give up IRC? Why did I have to open up UDP for web browsing to work? How do I close the SunRPC port? Getting Paranoid - You ARE being watched :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
