Disable all services that you don't use (e.g. sendmail). Avoid insecure
protocols, such as ftp and telnet (use ssh instead). If you are running Red
Hat, read Red Hat's errata regularly.
And then there are those basic things like don't write your password down, and
always work from a non-root account, unless you need root privileges for some
specific task.
And read this newsgroup. Don't be afraid to ask questions. ;-)

1. Protec a file in every home directory
Hi All,
I want to protect a single file in every users /home/public_html/
directory. For the user to view the file (which is a html file), they
must provide a valid password and login name. They click a button on a
page, which then results in them being asked for a username and
password. If correct, the specified html page is displayed.
How could I do this? With .htaccess?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
