Re: Recommendations for server, 2 take



First thing I do is move /tmp and /var/tmp to a
partition that's mounted noexec.
Too many sloppy PHP apps.  Worms drop things in /tmp
and run them from there.

Do you know, that you can run anything from there without
haveing /tmp exec?

Crackerst today can execute anythin even if mounted
noexec

I would agree, however this is another layer of security that will stop most basic worms that attempt to execute themselfs from the /tmp directory.
