Verify network services daemon files have no extended ACLs. # ls -la /usr/sbin # ls -la /usr/bin If the permissions include a "+", the file has an extended ACL and this is a finding. NOTE: Network daemons not residing in these directories (such as httpd or sshd) must also be checked for the correct permissions. A way to locate network daemons, such as httpd and sshd, is with the ps command. # ps -ef \| egrep '(sshd\|httpd)'
