Hi,

As user of Linux without much experience, my advices:
1.- Don't use root privilegies.
2.- Use open software, if able.
3.- Use software repositories of your distribution, if any.

It would be fine to learn 'iptables' (a firewall) and scan web traffic and running processes once in a while.

And use of common sense when browsing the web, not neccesary much more for a normal user. It would be different if you have to protect any big company servers.

Regards,
Birei.

NAME
bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory SYNOPSIS
bup web [[hostname]:port] DESCRIPTION
bup web starts a web server that can browse bup repositories. The file hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and bup-ftp(1). hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence bup web will only offer up the web server to locally running clients. If you'd like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dangerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all avail- able interfaces: :8080. EXAMPLE
$ bup web Serving HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8080... ^C $ bup web :8080 Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0:8080... ^C SEE ALSO
bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1), bup-ftp(1), bup-restore(1) BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite. AUTHORS
