Have you reformatted the machine after you have figured out
your box got rooted? Also, make sure you use the security tools from www.psionic.com they are exellent and
even easier to setup. Also, depending on your environment you may want
your mail / dns servers seperate, OR make the machine multi-homed (two nic
cards) if you are a business with a LAN and a WAN.
Make sure you use TCP wrappers, NO telnet NO anon ftp (no ftp
for that matter, ) Install SSH2 from www.ssh.com (free for commercial use) and that
comes with SFTP server for secure ftp transfer if needed. Also install
just your basic server , no X , nothing but exactly what you need and download
and install binarys for what you intend on run ****LATEST**** versions of
BIND and use www.postfix.org or www.qmail.org instead of sendmail.
I can go on and on....email me if you need specific
help.
