GNOME security.
Greetings,
Would anyone happen to know if it's possible (without hacking the sources
and breaking something) to disable the TCP listen ports that a great deal
of GNOME apps seem to listen on?
My suspicion is that these ports are used for GNOME's CORBA support, which
is great, but I tend to feel safer with UNIX domain sockets buried deep in
my home directory, with permissions to the effect of 0700.
Regards,
Alex.
