Well...I am glad all of the 'pros' out there have been so willing to provide such clear and concise instructions for all of the novice players out there....

^ This is a good start if you are serious about learning more about the security aspects of a CentOS VPS. However, there are a number of example works and tutorials that cover more recent information and specific uses for iptables...
Additionally, if you don't plan on using your VPS for any kind of webhosting, you should disable any unnecessary services like httpd and php...Of course, if you plan on hosting a clan page or some other service, you may want to leave these enabled - but figure out how to use them securely ASAP!!!

This is a valid way to accomplish the same task, as well...
I will try and incorporate this in, and demonstrate how multiple servers can be run this way...

Note: I am as noob as any and just wanted to try and fill a void I found myself in at one point in this game...
There is documentation out there, but few people are willing to help our less technically-savvy cuber brethren when asked...
I get asked a lot, and am more than willing to help, even though I am not the 'subject-matter-expert'. It seems like those that are aren't often accessible or interested...
On that note, a great thanks to the many people out there in the community that have been willing to help...
Thanks given by: Storch
