Security-wise, what documentation is available on how to lock down redhat linux 6.2 ... or any other linux distribution, for that matter? Let's say I want to put my Linux server out on the internet, how can I protect it from getting hacked? tom John Madden <weez@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>@freelists.org on 01/30/2001 10:18:16 AM Please respond to computertalkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent by: computertalkshop-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: computertalkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx cc: Subject: [CTS] Re: Linux?

You can basically just drop in the redhat cd and let it go, it'll present you with a choice of partitions to install to. However, RH 6.0 is full of problems, so the first thing you'll have to do once installing it is go out to their website and start updating. I suggest you look into getting 6.2...
