Openwall GNU/*/Linux user community resources

This is the namespace for Openwall GNU/*/Linux (or Owl for short), our security-enhanced Linux distro for servers.

It contains pages on and links to things such as:

• tutorials for new users of Owl, as well as advanced usage examples (currently, these are focused on Owl's support for OpenVZ container-based virtualization, but wiki pages on more Owl usage topics are welcome)

• references to repositories of packages usable on Owl

• how to build a new kernel (unofficial)

• …and more to come

Most of the Openwall team's sysadmin tips & tricks apply to Owl systems.

If you use Owl, please be sure to join the owl-users mailing list and provide your feedback. The subscription instructions are found right on the Owl homepage.

New Russian-speaking users may also be interested in reading the comments (sort of a FAQ) on this OpenNET story (in Russian) about our 2009/11/23 update.

Owl is a registered project with Freshmeat and Ohloh.
