    Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone can recommend a Linux Audit checklist or
    template especially on Red hat.
    Thanks

    I would also be interested, my own checklist in the past has been:
    1) no remote root login via ssh
    2) every user in /etc/passwd with a valid shell has a secure pw
    3) only 1 service (not including ssh) accessible remotely
    4) IPtables rules very specifically allowing only authorized ingress and
    egress
    5) up2date and rhn subscribed and working

    This is just what I can remmber at the moment, there are a lot of fixes I
    put in when I am sitting at the console and remember, and most of the
    really relevant fixes are service specific, perhaps it would help if you
    specified what services you are concerned about? I assume you are
    referring to a server set up with RHEL, if you are referring to a WS, that
    is a whole 'nother can of worms.

    Also,

    When having a conversation regarding security hardening guides and
    Linux, it's tough to leave Bastille Linux out of the mix.

    http://www.bastille-linux.org/

    It walks you through a security checklist and makes changes
    accordingly for you based on your responses. It also provides a
    simple way to revert back to the previous security configuration if it
    is too restrictive for your system.
