Is Linux just as vulnerable as Windows?

LinuxCrusader

The battle continues where many people argue that Linux is just as vulnerable as windows. Some argue that open source software is more vulnerable to attacks than proprietary software and some argue just the opposite.

3 days to freedom

Justbill

Well, I've made up my mind (or whats left of it)! Fedora Core 3 has got to GO! As I have said in the other thread, this OS is probably very good, but I am an amature, and I do have an older computer.

I'm New Here, if Fedora 3 is a more capable OS than XP why........

Justbill

cant' I use it? I am new to computers, I have an old HP 233, with a 60 gig hard drive, 192 mb of ram, and yes, I know I could use a new machine, but this has been inexpensive to learn on! I had 98SE on this machine originally, but it kept crashing.

Quake 3 Arena Under Linux

clutch

I thought there was a separate box version for Linux Q3A, but is there a simple executable that can be used to convert between the two? I would like to run Q3A under Linux without emulation to see how it runs, and in the process evaluate whether or not I get rid of Windows on my primary box.

Stopping file access from the Internet

I kept an article some years ago when I first tried redhat 6. Now some years later I have decided to go back to linux and found this article. It states that if you added in the line ALL: ALL in the file /etc/hosts.
