Great work on the OS Protection page Jim, and I love the idea of widening the security section… but shouldn’t this conversation be taking place in the centos-docs mailing list?

What sorts of specific roles did you have in mind? Even within certain roles such as a web severs there’s a huge variation in setups to get the job done. I do plan to do a basic set of security instructions for the default setup. Those rules can in most cases be applied to other environments.

I’m now near the end of a first run to make our Centos 5 systems PCI-DSS compliant. There are many questions on the net which stem from the very general and vage language used by the standard. From the answers I found so far the answer to many questions is “it depends” but it might still be useful to try to collect a corpus of “what others did about section X.Y.Z?”.
