						QUESTIONS ANSWERED: RED HAT LINUX SECURITY
Every system administrator is concerned with security. But how manydo you know who'll crawl to the top of a building to check the locks onroof access? Or sit in the parking lot with a wireless modem testingthe security of the network? Or get excited when they find a securityhole that needs patching?

For Red Hat security experts Mark Cox and Thomas Rude, security isfun. This month, UTB sat down and interviewed each of these Red HatSecurity czars on life, Linux, and their strange fascination with security.

Mark Cox: Senior Director of Engineering, the man behind Apache Week,founding member of the OpenSSL group, designer of the first non-USversion of Stronghold Secure Web Server, and a member of the coredevelopment team for Apache since 1995.

																					UNDER THE BRIM CONTEST 32: STAR WARS SYS ADMIN			
So we must have hit a nerve. More people submitted their picks forthe Star Wars character that would make the best Linux systemadministrator than almost any other contest we have ever done. One of the most popular answers was Chewbacca, and most people said something like the following, from Brett M. who said, "Chewbacca: if it doesn't work he can just beat the crap out of it."

Okay. Settle down Brett.

The next most popular answer was R2-D2, but Peter H. thought thatwhile R2-D2 was a good choice, Yoda was an even better one: "Would you rather hear "Beep-beep-whir-beeep!" when you talk to the SysAdmin or "Help you I can. Yes, mmmm. ... Stay and help you, I will."

But this month's winner, and the proud owner of a brand spanking new copy of Red Hat Linux 7.3, is Brian K. from Niskayuna, NY, who cast his vote for the hairy wookie, saying Chewbacca is "always fixing his friend's stuff without getting paid for it, and never has agirlfriend after three movies!"

Congratulations Brian, and thanks to everyone who entered.

						UNDER THE BRIM CONTEST 33: WORLD CUP CULTURE			
You just can't beat the World Cup. 

Whether you're watching Brazilian star Rivaldo simulate facialinjuries after getting hit in the knee with a ball, or watchingsoccer-superpower France fail to score a goal in three first-round matches--nothing brings cultures together quite like it. 

Except maybe for Linux. 

You heard us, Linux. Where else can you see a global community comingtogether in real time to develop software with people they've nevermet? 

Help us prove the point. For this month's contest, send us yourpersonal example of how Linux has helped you relate to anotherculture. 

Have you met someone from another part of the world through using or talking about Linux? Used Linux to learn a foreign language? UsedLinux and your Web browser to discover sites that really let you learn about another culture...Like the Korea Clean Toilet Association website: www.toilet.or.kr?

For bonus points, give us your pick for the country you think willwin the Cup.

Please keep your entries short and witty. The answer that pleases us most will receive a copy of Red Hat Linux7.3 Personal.

Send them to:  feedback@redhat.com

If you like, please send your name and place in the world when yousend your entry. We use only first name, last initial in UTB.
