Red Hat Asks for UCITA Reversal

OSS advocate writes "According to this NewsForge article, Red Hat has engaged the services of Carol Kunze (ucitaonline.com) to try to convince the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws to take UCITA back. There's a list of email addresses in case you want to send the commish a letter yourself." Red Hat's letter is a good start.

It should be 644 wich is that the owner can change it and everyone lese just read it. 666 is evil and if anyone can write to it it isnt safe. Take a look at what services you run and also look for new accounts. Install a firewall or go the fast lane and use something like firestarter that do it for you. Change your passwords to anything very hard to guess and throw a dictionary at. Most breakins is still done with passwords guessed or socially engineered. The bad thing about legit logins with stolen passwords is that they are hard to detect if you use your computer much.
