Heh. Incidentally I updated my own HOWTO yesterday as well. Here are the
changes:
- Added a security update after installation paragraph
- Added a proftpd paragraph
- This time really wrote something about XDM, sorry for last time
You mind to share the stuff on your TODO? Perhaps I could do something as
well. I will have some free time next week.

Yep. The "cleaning your screen buffer" thing should be included for
privacy issues, ie. Perhaps a small paragraph about netfilter/iptables as
well.
