By reducing the number of unnecessary components we can avoid waste of resources and also reduce the chance that weak components can be a cause of failure (vulnerability at first). Does anyone have his own indication for such configuration with recent OS releases (Linux as well as BSD)? Hope this question can be useful to newbies, but also to experts to review their "defaults" Francesco ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
