Hello all, I thought that I would start a thread to find out what flavor of linux = you guy's prefer for building a snort-inline box. The reason I'm posing th= is question is that I'm once again in search of a new distro. I was using= Trustix, but it seems they have gone the way of RedHat, and have decide= d to charge for a "more secure" Trustix. The problem I have had in the past= is of course "bloat", insecure initial configuration, and nothing that had= the additional security measures such as grsecurity, and ibm's ssp patch fo= r gcc, that a device such as this should have. I have built LFS and vari= ous other roll-your-own's in the past, but found portability to be a proble= m. Regards, Will= |
