I'm still on my quest to secure my web server ( RH7.1 soon t/b 7.2 ).
I've read in the security how-to, and other doc's, about changes I
should make to my /etc/fstab file. My current version I would
assume, is very much the default ( i've cut out the first column ):
/ ext2 defaults 1 1
/boot ext2 defaults 1 2
*/home ext2 defaults,usrquota,grpquota,bsdgroups 1 2
/mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0
/mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
*/tmp ext2 defaults 1 2
/usr ext2 defaults 1 2
*/var ext2 defaults 1 2
/proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
swap swap defaults 0 0
I was thinking of changing the '*' lines to something like this (
according to what i've read )
/home ext2 rw,user,usrquota,grpquota,bsdgroups 1 2
/tmp ext2 rw,user 1 2
/var ext2 rw,user 1 2
Are there other changes I should make??
