Hello all,

I'm considering rolling out a new server with gentoo, but wanted to base 
it on the hardened profile, but the gentoo docs I've read so far all 
seem to be a bit vague about all the details.

I've been using gentoo for a while on my hobby server, but I installed 
it about 8 years ago, and chose the 'server' profile, and I must say it 
has been a real pleasure to maintain, with the only real hiccup I ever 
experienced being the mailman update that moved the directories for the 
lists without telling me what to do about it (the fix was simple, and 
the devs swiftly fixed the lack of post-install docs).

Does anyone know of a good How-To that covers *all* of the bases? Ie, 
which model is best - grsecurity, PAX, SeLinux - and how best to 
implement it?

The purpose of this server will be as a mail server (dovecot, postfix, 
amavisd-new/spamassassin, mailman), and hosting a few small websites.

Thanks...
