    Hello group...

    Brief Server Info;
    SERVER #1: UBUNTU 6.06, ISPConfig 2, SMTP-AUTH, PostFix
    SERVER #2: UBUNTU 7.10. ISPConfig 2, SMTP-AUTH, PostFix

    I am looking to provide hardening for Apache2 mainly on the above 2 servers...

    I am looking at following the two Tutorials from HTF:
    1) Secure Your Apache With mod_security
    [http://www.howtoforge.com/apache_mod_security]

    2) How To Block Spammers/Hackers With Apache2's mod_spamhaus (Debian Etch)
    [http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-block-spammers-with-apache2-mod_spamhaus-debian-etch]

    Prior to beginning I just wanted to be sure that the Tutorials would apply properly to both servers mentioned above?

    If you have any suggestions to further protecting Apache2 also I would appreciate the advice greatly!

    Thanking you in advance for your help and time

    Best Regards

    Just a quick note: you should test mod_security thoroughly with your web applications - it could cause some issues.
