Re: hardening scripts

[SimonChan () lifeisgreat com sg]

Hi fw-wiz,

i would like to thank all input their suggestions on the current
availability of  hardening scripts to use for hardening Suse linux.

> From the responses gathered, it seem that the defacto standard ( some might
disagreed ) is Bastille.

While bastille is very much suited  for RedHat, Debian, Mandrake,
harden_suse script highly customised
and secure (it cover files permissions, users, services, login, password,
ssh .. ) for suse Linux.

However, harden_suse has not been maintained for a while ( up to 7.2)
though I tested it to work on Suse ver 8.
(Marc if you're reading this, any updates/to do in the future release ?)
