Your version of OpenSSL is old and there have been security updates. You should update. Check your vendor's website for an updated package. 2. You should never allow root to ssh in remotely. 3. If su(1) is slow, I'd recommened running chkrootkit to see what it thinks of your system. http://www.chkrootkit.org/ -- scot _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
