Can anyone think of a reason to simple block SUN RPC via iptables rather
than simply stopping the service if it is a mail/pop/imap/web server?
Thanks
It's normally referred to as "Defense-in-Depth". It is not recommended to
rely on a single method of security for anything. If the attacker gets
through the front line, it's always nice to know there is a second or third
or fourth, etc, etc, layer of defense to stop them.
