Server management
As I`m not to confident when it comes to securing and managing a linux server, I want to hire someone to do that for me.
I`ve been looking at the "Security Hardening and Service Monitoring Package" with easyservermanagement.com and it seems like what I need.
Will this package be enough for me so that I can relax and manage my clients through Cpanel/WHM?
Will this package keep my server secure and let me think about marketing and running my business while not have to think about SSH to my server except when I want to install anything, like i.e ImageMagick?

Well, first, you will never be able to 'just sit back', surely not with that big security flaw cPanel.
But, I've never tried them, but they seem decent. But you still want to learn how do do it yourself.
I'll go with them if I was you. But still, you can fully depend on nobody but yourself.
Thats my $0.02

I know I never kan "sit back and relax", I manage one linux server today and it`s running smoothly. I have no customers on this server though.
But when I`m going to have customers on a server I want someone professional to help me. Someone who can do the basic hardening of the server and do security audits once and a while..
And I feel that I need someone professional that knows my system and who I can consult when I need help.

Yea, it is a never ending process of keeping people out of your servers. Even with the most secure box people are going to find vulnerabilities. We have used Ryan's products at http://www.rfxnetworks.com for ages now and have heard lots of good about his work.

I just used phpdeveloper's services this week. The guy (Len) is awsome to work with. Had everything setup in no time.
P.S. Thanks Wong for getting me in touch with him.
