Peter Halliday <phalliday at netzero.net> - October 02nd 2000, 01:32 EDT
security-script is a port of FreeBSD's /etc/security script. It is a powerful tool that checks many aspects of your system's security and then emails you with the results. The checks it performs include finding setuid of files and directories, uid's of 0, the count of the firewall wall rules that you have set up to deny or reject (to see if any firewall activity has occurred), checks for failed logins, and checks for rejected connections. As you continually use this script it will help you to monitor the security of your system. It comes with an install script plus a cron script.
Changes: This release features more security for non-root users, improved use of tmp files through mktemp, explicit use of -f for mv and cp, and a BSD compliant license.
