Here's an update on these problems as they relate to Solaris 2.4... > Problems: 1. As distributed, /opt/SUNWdxlib contains many _world_ writeable > files, including executables. Fixed. > 2. By default, /var/nis/{hostname}.dict is _world_ writeable. Unknown. We do not run NIS+. > 3. /etc/hostname.le0 is _world_ writeable. NOT fixed. > 4. /var/statmon, /var/statmon/sm, and /var/statmon/sm.bak are > _world_ writeable directories. NOT fixed. > 5. The following files are _world_ writeable: > /var/adm/vold.log NOT fixed. > /var/log/syslog* Fixed. > /var/lp/logs/lpsched > /var/lp/logs/lpNet NOT fixed. > /etc/mnttab NOT fixed. > /etc/path_to_inst.old Fixed. > /var/saf/_log NOT fixed. > /etc/rmtab NOT fixed. How very reassuring... Best regards, Calum. ---- Calum D.
