I know I’m probably violating many copyrights by doing this (then again it’s only a commercial, and I doubt IBM would mind free advertising), but I have to post up here what I think is the best commercial ever made (like there are many to compete with) for linux. Not only in that it [...]

Secunia.com seems like a pretty nice central place to get details on security patches and holes related to many different products. I like the fact that they mention when specific linux distro’s have a patch available for a security issue or but…
