My local telephone exchange is becoming broadband enabled at the end of September and I am working on the assumption that I will be able to use it (BT's site says I MAY).
I have a firewall running (Endoshield - very easy to set up) and have just changed it to Bastille which seems to be working (grc.com).
Bastille recommends 'psad' which is also now installed. I had Snort and Samhain installed but do I need these?
Do I need Packet Mangling enabled in the Kernel which it isn't at present?
Advice would be appreciated
Yours paranoidly
