Fwd: apache&postgres

[Alessandro Bezzi]

Hi denis,
normally the modem or the router stops the dangerous attacks from the 
net. in this way a normal user of archeos is protected. the computer 
could be attacked when the port on the router is open to connect a 
server-station, but if a archeos-user do it, i think he is not a newbie 
and know how to protect his computer. Normally for a server-station are 
used specifically distribution like ubuntu-server or centos, i don't 
think someone will use archeos.
bye
