Re: Securing Fedora Core 4

If you are considering MAC (Mandatory Access Control) features, have a 
look also at RSBAC (http://www.rsbac.org/), it is a quite complete 
modular MAC system [_personally_ I find it much better than Selinux,
with many more features and depending on your skills on setting it up, 
it can give you a much higher security]. You can find also Fedora Core 
rpms at

http://fedora.rsbac.mprivacy-update.de/

FC-4 rpms should be out in a couple of weeks, in the meantime you can 
use FC-3 rpms which have been reported to work fine also on FC-4. 

Please notice that there is little support on these rpms, they are just 
given as a help to test and start you off with RSBAC. If you plan to use 
RSBAC in production environment, use the official distribution (and 
patch and compile the kernel etc.etc.). Best,

Andrea


PS. Workstation rpms for FC4 are under development, they do not offer 
MAC features, but they give antivirus scanning on access 
(clamd-clamuko/dazuko), anti buffer overflow (PaX) and resource 
exhaustion control.
