Subject: SUMMARY: *UNIX Site Security Guideline Document (Availability)
Two weeks back I posted a note about being unable to reach
syn-gate.synoptics.com on the net in order to get the document
"Improving the Security of Your UNIX System." Here's the summary.
I am still unable to reach that site, and several other people had the same
difficulty; Robert Enger even sent me a traceroute listing showing a black
hole after Synoptics gateway to Barrnet (still there BTW). I mainly got
requests for the document and for the information, but one kind person
did send me a site which I got the file from; however I somehow lost that mail
which is why I couldn't reply promptly (no answer)- my apologies! Fortunately
a general solution to finding almost any public domain software on the internet
came through an unrelated posting on Nov 26 from bajan@opus.cs.mcgill.ca,
entitled: "How to find you PD programs (archie)" [ RE: you (sic)].
The following information is abridged from what I just got by telnetting to
quiche.cs.mcgill.ca (132.206.2.3 or 132.206.51.1), logging in as "archie",
which runs an arhive server program and typing "prog security-doc".
(There is doc on-line as you login also.)
File security-doc.tar.Z (size is 175811 bites) is available from the following
anonymous ftp sites (I shortened the list to just a few from each domain):

and finally to (Eric Hanchrow) yamada-sun!eric@nosun.West.Sun.COM who added:

I heard it as "Der Herrgott wuerfelt nicht".
