I think here in lies the problem - everyone has different needs from thier |
6 |
servers. Personally, I need X on one of my servers, http://shurl.net needs it |
7 |
to create thumbnails of websites. On some servers, the 'no games' would be a |
8 |
problem, because 'fortune' is needed (lets face it, it's a fantastic way to |
9 |
kill time). |

I will be solving this issue shortly by using the hardened profile, along with |
12 |
a custom overlay which will have a meta-package in called something like |
13 |
'$companyname-server'. This will pull in iproute2, vim, fortune, nmap, |
14 |
iptables, and everything else. This method could also be used to distribute |
15 |
custom config files - such as your vimrc, and your screenrc. |
