Thank you for the response, Jim. Sorry to take so long to acknowledge! Judith

Mr. Dennis, Can you direct me to a source that will tell me how to secure our RHLinux 6.0 DNS server. I am new to Linux. We only use it for DNS, so we want to make sure we've closed all unnecessary services.

Thanks..... Judith

You could start with Bastille Linux at
http://www.bastille-linux.org

[ Plain thanks don't always get published, but it's worth noting that Bastille just released a new version of their scripts a few days ago. To stay secure, it's worth keeping up. The mailing lists at SecurityFocus are worth watching, too.
