Hola Nanog: So after many years of a hiatus from Linux, I recently dropped XP in favour of Fedora. Now that my happy windows blinders are off, I see alarming things. Ugly ssh brute force, DNS server IP spoofing with scans and typical script kiddie tactics. What are the new set of best practices for those running a NIX home computer. Yes I have a firewall and I do peruse my logs on a regular basis. BTW: ever drop a malformed URL to alert an admin to some thing that sucks? w3.hp.com/execs/makes/too/much/money or www.yourbuddiesdomain.com/it/is/all/rfc/space/use/1918/when/referring/to/non/routable Thanks, BobbyMac
