Server Setup Tips

[ziycon]

I'm setting up a centos 6 vm server and will be setting it up as a lamp setup. I'm also looking to secure the server and wondering if there is any good documentation on securing a server using iptables and other things to keep in mind?

Thanks in advance.

There are a LOT of tutorials out there.
Falko's one for Centos 5 would be a good start: The Perfect Setup - CentOS 5.0 (32-bit) | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

Thanks for that, I'll give it a read through.
