Hi Guys,
I would like advice for best practices to secure my linux boxes. Know if I have been hacked, know of security breaches, etc.
Can anyone provide advice?

Take a look at the CIS guide for Red Hat 5: http://www.cisecurity.org/bench_linux.html (you do not need to be registered to download the PDFs).

Check out Bastille Linux. It's not a distro, it's a system hardening tool, and many things it does are referred to by the NIST guidelines.
I, personally, used a firewall/router that I build using it on RH 9, and for around 10 years, never had an intrusion.

Annother vote for bastille, it works very well.

Note, I couldn't find any source RPMs in svn.
And I hasten to add, I would never delegate the task of building security software for my system to another person.

so you compile your whole system from scratch, after audting all the code?
how do you ever get anything done?
Hi,
I get the fedora srpm, installed, apply modify for centos and recompiled, for rkhunter, sectool.
ipset and ipset kmod i've made by hand to use ipset function with iptables, blocking dinamical blacklists with fail2ban and shorewall.
