The most I know about securing a Linux vps I picked up from this: http://feross.org/how-to-setup-your-linode/ http://feross.org/how-to-setup-your-linode/ . If there is an ultimate resource on how to start securing a *nix vps then please do let me know. If I knew what to search for I could but a lot of this is unknown unknowns to me.
