suid bit files + securing FreeBSD
...MUST have it ?
I know generalities, as e.g. shell should never have suid bit set,
but what if someone has copied any shell to some other location
and have set the suid bit ? It's security hole, isn't it ?
And what if I have more such files on my machine ?
It is not about my machine has been compromited, it is only WHAT IF...

Second question is: Has anybody an exact wizard, how to secure
the FreeBSD machine. Imagine the situation, the only person who
can do anything on that machine is me, and nobody other. I have
set very restrictive firewalling,...
