securing your server ? Question about the content of this script.
I recently found someone recommending this
http://els.web4host.net/installer.sh
What it basicly does is to download this file http://els.web4host.net/els.tar.gz
unpack it and install the contents, I did a quick check and inside there are checks if DirectAdmin, cPanel is installed or not.
It installs and configures, among other things a firewall ....
now, I never download and executes a script file without checking it first and therefore I have this question to you guys 
Have any of you seen or heard of this before?
Any thoughts on it. Good/bad or just useless
Thanks,

@MikHo create some local sandbox virtual machine and test it there?
But I'd rather not stick to any automated installers just because I prefer to know how things were setup and works.
