Secure a service directly, rather than hope that putting a firewall between them and something else will do the trick. If someone can get past the firewall, that sort of security (configuring a service properly), they still can't compromise your server. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
