******************
* level4/level5 : "services disabled" explanations :
- Some server aren't really considered as secure,
these one, should for exemple be compiled from sources.
server considered as secure are specified in /etc/security/msec/init-sh/server.4/5
When enabling level4/5, all server which aren't considered as secure are
disabled ( NOT uninstalled, just disabled ) user can reenable them using the
chkconfig utility ( server will be launched at next boot ).
In these level, we are also denying rpm to enable any server considered as insecure
( off course rpm can install the server ).
The user have the choise : chkconfig --add servername will enable the server.
Or add the server in the secured server list
*** Future Release : ***
- Automatic tty locking ( unlock by passwd ) after X time of inactivity.
- In high security level, only user having access to group "sugrp" can use the su command.
