Subject: Step by step securing web server/ A/V live streaming To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am a newbie and wanted to know if FreeBSD is the most secure OS? I want to use it as a web server and nothing else. Is there a step by step method of locking the OS down. Any books or links? If I am doing Microsoft Media video/audio streaming 640x480 300kbps streams what kind of computer can I use? There will be about 2000+ users connecting to our website where they can watch the stream that will be embeded in the webpage. In the above case does the streaming server have to be big or the web server or both? If someone could give me specs on what kind of cpu to use for both it would be most appreciated.
