This is made complex due to the fact that there isn't | a central location for security issues to be reported and | fixed. In contrast Microsoft provides a single security repository | for notification and fixes of security related issues. | Configuring Linux security requires an administrator to be an | expert in the intricacies of the operating system and how | components interact. Misconfigure any part of the operating system | and the system could be vulnerable to attack. Windows NT security | is easy to set up and administer with tools such as the Security | Configuration Editor. See? This "weekly Windows NT security update newsletter" can only be a hoax. Microsoft *themselves* are telling you. "We have never been at war with competitors." -- Colin Marquardt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
