Bastille-linux doesn't work with debian anymore. It worked with my early version of debian wheezy.
It won't run on my friend's debian 7.8 This suggests that even though debian 7 is a "stable" release, debian is mucking with it. (Did they update to a version of TK that "depreciates" things (the new people love to do this: always shifting sands with them)) Bastille-linux was (and is) a great script that helps you set up security on linux. Doing all those tasks you might forget (it can be found on sf.net or an older ubuntu repo:bastille_3.0.9-13_all.deb) There's no reason it shouldn't work anymore, it's a shell and TK script. Debian, ofcourse, nolonger packages it. Can't allow people to have easy security (also doesn't package grsecurity kernel, also messed with ssh code to give us insecurity for 2 years etc) Could Devuan perhaps package Bastille for itself. It is a very good script for setting things up. http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/bastille-linux/ It's a shame Debian has abandoned it. It is a shame Debian changes things in it's stable releases so that, say wheezy 7.2 can run it, but wheezy 7.8 can't bring up the TK interface of the script nor can it save a file using the curses interface! Yes so stable! _____________________________________________________________ Are you a Techie? Get Your Free Tech Email Address Now!
