[gentoo-user] Testing how secure a server is...

[Raphael Melo de Oliveira Bastos Sales]

Hi there,

   I was wondering what tools should I use to detect security flaws to
my server and a few tips on how to use them. What are the most common
forms of attack and how do I avoid being attacked by one of them?

   The services avaliable are only Apache - SSL and SSH. I've
installed an firewall, iptables and firestarter to control it, and
blocked all ports except 443 and 8080, where the SSH is listening.
Apache has PHP installed as a module.

Thanks for the attention,

Raphael.
