This server is using a specific protocol (in XDR format) over TCP sockets. I would like to secure my server against usual attacks (buffer overflow, etc.). While there is plenty of doc for C and C++, there is nothing for OCaml. At what kind of issues should I look to avoid attacks? Has anybody written a documentation or a tool to secure OCaml applications? Many thanks in advance for any advice, Yours, d. -- David Mentré ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
