Hi everybody,

I have some questions to consult all of you:

I wonder if it's safe to put a FreeBSD on the internet? Do I need to
tighten any things on it? Can I change root to some other names?

If I disable telnet, can intruders still execute commands by telneting
to other ports?

compare to NT, which is more secure? (I myself would prefer BSD, since
it's a much older OS, but I need info to prove myself)

Best Regards,

Chan
