I searched linuxdoc.org to check for HOW-TOs on configuring these. I havent used redhat in awhile, been using more OpenBSD.

So if anyone has a link to HowTos for these i'd be greatful.
If someone has a howtos for configuring these in a web hosting enviorment i'd be extremely greatful.

Also what ports need to NOT be blocked on a cpanel server,webmail etc.

Note: i did a search on wht didnt find anything.

no need for a port sentry "how to" the install file explains it enough. I would start out the with man file on iptables to get started.

advanced tcp and udp monitoring takes quit ea few processes.
