Ok, I've been doing a lot of research lately on securing my box and
software that we can use on it. I have decided that once I finish up
this last bit of work I have to do, it will be ok to run phpbb on my
system. my plan is to lock everything away from apache so even if phpbb
is exploited, apache won't have access to actually let it do anything!
other things:
- this x-mas/new years server will go down for a few, preferably
minutes, for a rack (if I get it) and a UPS to go in.
- crontab only works for root by the looks of it :( so if you have a
link to allow fcron to work for everybody, I'm all ears, but in the
meantime, just give me a line that you want me to run. keep in mind, if
it's a script, the script will be chmod'ed so nobody can write to it for
security reasons.
- the plan is to get exim setup for smtp, but I'm no expert whatsoever
on email systems. On that note, if anybody is willing to sit down with
me and help me understand all of this that would be much appreciated so
i can get a fully working email system up for everyone!
- iptables is currently locked down pretty tight, I probably need to add
an exempt to them for port 80 and 443 as right now I block AOL, China,
Korea, and Nigera. Which ones would you guys liked unlocked? If anybody
wants to take a look over those things, the link to them is:
http://dioxide.randomvoids.com/~appleboy/iptables.sh
- bandwidth is currently at 5mbps/800kbps up/down respectively, I'm
working on getting the upgrade, ETA unknown but at this point in time
none of that bandwidth is used.
- new HDs are coming soon too! If I can't get the scsi drives, I'll go
with two 74G 10k RPM SATA drives in a raid1 and then do a proper
partitioning scheme.
- tonight is update ahoy! I've been doing a ton of them
- server has been up 40 days! this is kickass! :) Then again, my other
one has been up for 71
why I'm posting all of this to the list, I don't know, I could just be
out of my mind tonight as it is late and I'm tired
Of course, any suggestions to help the security or performance of this
server will be taken into consideration :)
