Coming into Linux is a little overwhelming, especially I think since I chose Debian. I am coming along ok I think but I have a few more questions. In the book I bought that is based on Debian 2.1 it says that wu-ftp-academ, or something very similar, controls all the ftp access but when I installed it, it said it had been replaced by netstd, which I installed but now I don't know how to configure my ftp server. I saw the file ftpusers, but this just limits who can't log on I think. I want to be able to set permessions and such.
I've been trying to read about linux security but I am just overwhelmed with information and I'm not really sure where to start. I did d/l the Debian patches. I am going to setup a webserver. So where should I go from there? Thanks, Brett oh yeah does anyone know a quick way to disable port 111?
