[cobalt-users] Protecting a Raq - any definitive guide?

["Adrian Teasdale" <adrianteasdale@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

I have been lurking on this list for around a week now as I'm considering getting a raq from one of the dedicated server companies that are out there.  I must admit that I have been quite worried about the potential for hacking that there is and I was wondering if anyone on the list has a "Newby A-Z" for protecting one of these machines?  If not, would it not be a good idea to create one.  I do appreciate that there is no 100% way of securing a machine, but help in the right direction would be good :)  Also, would it be worth creating some kind of forum purely to help with securing the Raq - I know that Allaire have created a site about security with regard to Cold Fusion (http://www.allaire.com/developer/SecurityZone/)

Any suggestions?

Ade
