It would be funny if not so sad. I Haven't see such statements for years. Could you explain for us your historical 
statement, or please refer to a source of such deeply thought statement?

Don't use Linux. It is insecure. Use Windows or one of the BSDs.
All are much more secure.

Hi All,

Is anyone aware of a hardening guide for a Linux LAMP server with a 
Wiki component?

I have an older Linux Server hardening book, but nothing recent. I 
have not seen a Wiki hardening document.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
