I am fairly new to this world of Linux and I just got my own Dedicated Server. Anyone know of a website that has a list of security holes in linux 6.2, listed in an easy to digest manner. I am such a novice that I was not very succesfull interpreting some security issues I saw at Redhat.com

Any and all help greatly appreciated

Well, I usually just keep on top of the updates, http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/

http://www.securityfocus.com :) Subscribe to bugtraq. Remeber to use a different email address then the normal one. They send out over 40mails a day :)

I've got a few security resources listed on my site on the Resources page.

One cautionary message about Buqtraq. I subscribed to it and tried to unsubscribe the next day. The reports were for all kind sof bugs on all kinds of systems and I want to focus on Linux, Apache, and related products only. Buqtraq's mail system was flawed and kept telling me the address they were mailing to could not be found to unsubscribe. I finally had to block e-mail from them to put an end to the unwanted messages.

hehhehe.. Duster, well now they have different mailing lists for Lunix and stuff. I subscribe to all, plus linux, plus programing. :)

Wait until you try to unsubscribe. Unless they ahve fixed the problem, you'll really have something to bleep about!

heheh.. well sorry, but I did, and re-subscribed with a new email addy :) I dint have any problems in the entire process ;)

Ive seen a lot of mailing lists you couldnt unsubscribe from, theres nothing worse than getting spam from a company, but then they advertise you can unsubscribe, and it never works.
