Resources/tools for server hardening?

[Rafał Radecki <radecki.rafal@gmail.com>]

Hi All :)

What resources or tools do you use for server hardening/checking servers' security?

I currently am checking Nessus, it looks good :) I found some info also about Bastille but it seems to be dead. Which other tools do you recommend?

I am thinking about applying some common sense security rules through puppet and then use Nessus to check servers. Can you recommend a different approach?

Thanks for all help :)

BR,
Rafal.
