Since we're talking about Linux hardening...
What do folks suggest as far as files that should be monitored with
integrity checking tools? Obviously, tmp files and other frequently
changed files are out of the question, and it is also impractical to do
checking on all other files. Does anyone have a best practices list or
suggestions of what files are critical to monitor with integrity checking?
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/group
/etc/pam.d/*
/var/www/<static web pages>
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
???
