FreeBSD Security Survey

by on May.23, 2006, under Uncategorized

Quote from FreeBSD mailing list:
"Dear FreeBSD users and system administrators,

While the FreeBSD Security Team has traditionally been very good at
investigating and responding to security issues in FreeBSD, this only
solves half of the security problem: Unless users and administrators
of FreeBSD systems apply the security patches provided, the advisories
issued accomplish little beyond alerting potential attackers to the
presence of vulnerabilities."

For this purpouse FreeBSD has made a Security survey you can answer. I urge everyone using FreeBSD to fill out the form as it doesn’t take more than a few minutes and the input will help solve things like this.

Get Ready for Windows Vista

…or that’s what Microsoft wants you to do. MS has released detailed system requirements for their upcoming OS. It seems like you poor saps with old HW will be able to run Vista on a 800MHz processor. If you want all the bells and whistles you’ll have to dish out some dough on a new graphics card though.
