Hardening CentOS 6 x86-64
Hi just joined the forum and must say it seems like like too much fun 
After years of shared hosting I took the plunge and got a VPS with 4 gig from wave rider.
I want to use Virtualmin and was searching for hardening info but got lots of old stuff from web search's anyone know of a good tutorial for setting up CentOS 6.
