    77duplicate code (and risk introducing bugs), it just has to call
    88functions from the libraries installed on the system.  The most obvious
    9 example of a set of libraries is glibc which is installed during the LFS
    10 book.  This contains all of the C library functions which programs
    11 use.</para>

    13 <para>There are two types of library, static and shared.  Shared
    14 libraries (usually <filename>libXXX.so</filename>) are loaded into memory from the shared
    15 copy at runtime (hence the name).  Static libraries
    16 (<filename>libXXX.a</filename>) are
    17 actually linked into the program executable file itself, thus making the
    18 program file larger.  Quite often, you will find both static and shared
    19 copies of the same library on your system.</para>

    2423dependencies.  Thus, you can figure out which libraries you need to have
    2524before installing that program.  If you are installing something without
    26 using BLFS instructions, usually the <filename>README</filename>  or

     5<para>Security takes many forms in a computing environment. This chapter
     6gives examples of three different types of security; access, prevention
     7and detection.  Access for users is usually handled by
     8<command>login</command> or an application designed to handle the login
     9function.  In this chapter, we show how to enhance
     10<command>login</command> by setting policies with
     11<application><acronym>PAM</acronym></application> modules.  Access via networks
     12can also be secured by policies set by
     13<application>iptables</application>. Prevention of breaches, like
     14trojans, are assisted by applications like <application>gnupg</application>,
     15specifically the ability to confirm signed packages, which prevents
     16modification of the tarball after the packager creates it. Finally, we touch on
     17detection with a package that stores "signatures" and then regenerates those
     18"signatures" and compares for files that have been changed.</para>
