I was just wondering if there was a step-by-step "First Thing to do after you got a RedHat Linux Box" ?

I notice there is one for Plesk boxes.

What I'd like to do:

1) Make sure my server is secure (firewall)

2) Update it with latest patches etc

3) Add the DBD modules etc

4) Configure one IP based domain

5) Setup a website that supports -
CGI + PHP
SSI
MySQL Databases
