Pregunta 1
Pregunta
Typing lsof -i | grep LISTEN as root produces three lines of output, corresponding
to the sendmail, sshd, and proftpd servers. What can you conclude about the security of
this system?
Respuesta
-
Everything is OK; the presence of sshd ensures that data are being encrypted via SSH.
-
The sendmail and sshd servers are OK, but the FTP protocol used by proftpd is insecure and should never be used.
-
The sendmail server should be replaced by Postfix or qmail for improved security, but sshd and proftpd are fine.
-
Because sendmail and proftpd both use unencrypted text-mode data transfers, neither is appropriate on a network-connected computer.
-
No conclusion can be drawn without further information; the listed servers may or may not be appropriate or authentic.

Pregunta 11
Pregunta
You want to use xinetd access controls to limit who may access a server that’s launched via
xinetd. Specifically, only users on the 192.168.7.0/24 network block should be able to use
that server. How may you do this?

Pregunta 18
Pregunta
Why is it unwise to allow root to log on directly using SSH?
Respuesta
-
Disallowing direct root access means that the SSH server may be run by a non-root user, improving security.
-
The root password should never be sent over a network connection; allowing root logins in this way is inviting disaster.
-
SSH stores all login information, including passwords, in a publicly readable file.
-
When logged on using SSH, root’s commands can be easily intercepted and duplicated by undesirable elements.
-
Somebody with the root password but no other password can then break into the computer.
