Not on my machine. I don't have PHP installed. And while the DNS issue is troubling, I don't use my System i for DNS so that's not an issue either.

But I'm not going to argue with you. i5/OS simply is more secure than any other operating system. It's the one platform that you really don't need a security consultant to secure.
