Hey folks! I am the author of this guide. I did not know this was here or I would have commented sooner.

This is my first time putting a guide like this together. I see a lot of really great feedback and I will be incorporating them into future updates.

I don't have time today but I will reply individually to all the comments that I can.

I appreciate any/all feedback/advice. If possible, could future issues be submitted to GitHub because it is easier for me to manage if everything is in one place. https://github.com/imthenachoman/How-To-Secure-A-Linux-Serve...

But right now I need to find all the other places this guide is linked to with comments so I can address them too. :)

It has been mentioned in one of the pull request that this guide was being discussed on HN right after it got here: https://github.com/imthenachoman/How-To-Secure-A-Linux-Serve....

There are two fresh threads on Reddit:

Holy crap! I did not see those two on Reddit. I had posted to Reddit and was monitoring those comments but didn't know of these. Thanks! Although, I'm sad both of those threads got more comments then the original one I posted. Not that it really matters in life. Heh.

And yes, I saw that pull request but I didn't know what HN was at that time. After I saw that comment, and before they said HN = Hacker News, I started Googling around to see if I could find where my repo was being mentioned. That is how I found this post in HN.

Thanks!
