- usage : Bastille can be used via meta-security layer only in command line mode.
- To start Bastille simply write in a terminal :
-
- bastille -c
-
- If this is the first usage of Bastille on the system, the user will be
- guided through a list of questions which need to be answered. In the end,
- a config file will be created and run. After these steps, you will have a
- hardened system.
-
- If you only want to run the config file, without stepping through the
- list of questions, simply write in a terminal :
-
- bastille -b

- More information can be found in the package readme and manual.
+ usage : The functionality of Bastille which is available is
+ restricted to a purely informational one. The command:
+ bastille -c --os Yocto
+ will cause a series of menus containing security questions
+ about the system to be displayed to the user. For each
+ question, a default response, specified in the configuration
+ file which is installed with Bastille, will be selected.
+ The user may select an alternate response. When the user
+ has completed the sequence of menus Bastille saves the
+ responses to the configuration file.
+
+ The command:
+ bastille -l lists the configuration files that Bastille
+ is able to locate.
+
+ The other functionality which Bastille is intended to provide
+ is actually unavailable. This is not due to errors in poky
+ installation or configuration of the application. The Bastille
+ distribution is no longer supported. Significant modifications
+ would be required to make it possible to make use of the
+ functionality which is currently unavailable.
+
+
+ Additional information about Bastille can be found in the package
+ README file and other documentation.
+
+ Alternatives to Bastille include buck-security and checksecurity,
+ described elsewhere in this file.
