Hi there! I want to harden the gentoo running on my little server, but I'm a little worried about possible problems. Like, services not coming up when rebooting after an emerge -e world. Do you see any possibility for that?
I followed the guide at <http://rockfloat.com/howto/gentoo-hardened.html> (activate hardened profile, enable some kernel options and build new hardened kernel, emerge binutils gcc virtual/libc), and added -fforce-addr to my CFLAGS. I then switched back to gcc 3.4 from gcc 4 with gcc-config, and now I should do the emerge -e world. I guess this is quite safe? Wonko -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
