Comment Secure Windows. Anyone remember Blaster? (Score 1) 796
A study compairing windows 2003 server to Redhat standard distro with out the security suit installed is useless.
I can make my linux box less secure then windows. It would be simple Install OPENSSHD, allow root axis, set root password to GOD.
This artical dosnt analyse any useful information because yes Linux can be setup as insecure, but you can also enable anomonys unencrypted remote desktop on a windows 2003 machine. The good studies on security try to measure security when both machines are as secure as possible and list what services were being run on both.

This is not the first time this type of subject has come up and it will come up again. Why we bother with it on slashdot I dont know, but then again I bothered to reply.
