Amongst other steps which i am sure others on the list will soon enough provide, i would suggest you set up your firewall to only accept SSH connections from a specified IP address. I also would move ssh from 2222 to something else like 3463 (security through obscurity i know...) Disable root login via ssh. Oh and make sure you use strong passwords on all your accounts. -- ~michael --------------------------------------------------------------------------- EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The Norwich University program offers unparalleled Infosec management education and the case study affords you unmatched consulting experience.
