Do I really need to shell out $60 for those thick books on firewalling and
hackproofing my home PC? I really would not rather take the time and
energy for that if not needed. I just want my home PC to be secure --
running Mandrake Linux 9.2 (soon 10.x) with cable modem. Will be running
SSH server occassionally. Will just using the point and click
security firewall settings in the Mandrake Control Control Center suffice,
or perhaps installing some firewall open source app like GuardDog suffice?
