Subject: [9fans] secstore security
Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2005 10:38:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <93546c9b78bebd4ddb075ec510d3f640@quintile.net> (raw)

I want to backup my secstore on other machines, and
he 9grid nodes seem the obvious place. I trust
the 9grid adminstrators as far as I can (I have never met them),
but in the general case, how secure is the secstore from
a dictionary attack by bootes?

I have read the text on secstore in /sys/doc/auth.ps but I
don't feel qualified to make a decision.

Any security experts out there?

-Steve
