A long long time ago... in a galaxy far far away... I made a commitment to
have a stab at producing a security FAQ for NetBSD.

For your amusement, I have included the current list of FAQs in the
FAQ.. no answers yet, that will come when y'all have had a chance to tell
me what questions I've missed out on :) (The answers are written by the
way, I just want to 'guide discussion' a bit ;)

Feedback welcomed..

Cheers,

Al
