How serious a threat (i.e. how common) are Linux viruses? Attach the place which can not be defended. If a Linux virus is developed and sent through an unprotected mail server, it would be a serious threat. Its advantage is that Linux virii are not common. Surprise! In the case of protecting Windows clients, it's better to stop a virus at the door than to fight it once it's inside. ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements-http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug
