It's taken a little time to find out where I got it. Normally I keep good notes and bookmark URLs, but I was 'ducking and weaving' so much here I got confused. Anyway ... The document is titled "Security Quick-Start HOWTO for Linux" and was originally by Hal Burgiss. later updated by Dave Wreski. (Google will point to a number of sites if you use the full title). I think I downloaded from:- http://www.linuxsecurity.com/articles/documentation_article-4422.html Also I got good stuff from:- http://www.aboutdebian.com/firewall.htm and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Security-Quickstart-HOWTO I'm in my seventies and not very computer literate, so you may not be as impressed as I was ( mind you, I've inwardly digested only a little of the contents so far ).
