So here's what you need to do:
  • Identify which ports CVSNT has open to the world[/B]
  • Use IPTABLES or /etc/hosts.deny to make sure those ports are only open to those IPs that need this versioning system[/B]
  • Make sure your system's users all have strong passwords (look for JTR - john the ripper)[/B]
If all that's okay, then this is probably nothing to worry about.
