wish list



Well, 
     If i were to contribute suggestions for a secure distro of linux, it would 
be this:

             i)  Ship it with the international linux patch installed
                        www.kerneli.org

            ii)  Install the non-executable stack patch

           iii)  ssh and tripwire are a must

The problem is that to have a truly secure machine(linux or non linux) you must 
watch lists like bugtraq, and install patches as soon as vulnerabilities are 
discovered.  You can develop an extreemly secure machine, but 6 months later if 
no updates were applied the machine it could be wide open.  The fact is you cant 

make sys admins update their machines.
