Red Hat to Release Enhanced-Security Linux

Posted by timothy on from the compound-modifier dept.

Klatoo55 writes "According to an article by Techweb, Red Hat will release Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0, which includes support for Security-Enhanced Linux, in 2005. Red Hat has been running this system with a published IP address asking for hackers to try to break the security. The last version was defeated within 45 seconds, but this new version (apparently to be the policy for the next Fedora) has yet to be cracked."

    Wow, if you listen to the Slashdot crowd, Linux 1.0 is nearly impenetrable, security-wise.

    Too bad they cant mod down that "45 second" article; Im sure they really would like to suppress it.
