no, not secure. read comments bodhi.zazen somewhere saying lots of machines cracked vnc users don't take additional measures lock down. if need use vnc, should example tunnel through ssh , use encrypted key authentication instead of password authentication.

see these:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/sshhowto
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/advancedopenssh
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ss...sh/configuring
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ssh/openssh/keys

btw, firestarter not recommended. use ufw instead, installed default. can install gufw, if need graphical interface.

allora ragazzi per prima cosa saluto questa nuova e splendida board. ho delle domande importantissime da farvi, speriamo che le vostre risposte possano risolvere miei dubbi. dunque: 1) sulla base di un sito formato grafico (jpg, gif o altro) come posso ben associare joomla ad esso? cioè, credo che devo scrivere un template personale, posso quindi partire dalla normale struttura html? e quali saranno quindi collegamenti ipertestuali delle varie sezioni?... (ci sono tutorial su come creare o modificare temi? qualcuno per novizi...) 2) durante la registrazione dell'utente, posso fare in modo che io amministratore confermi l'iscrizione, invece di farlo l'utente stesso dalla sua email? in che modo? (mi hanno consigliato community builder, è il miglior modo?) 3) può mio fratello (ignorante di siti web) inserire facilmente documenti pdf che saranno scaricabili dai soli utenti registrati?
