On the topic of learning about Linux security, I've got a couple of links that I
found quite helpful:
"Beginner's guide to armoring Linux" at
http://www.enteract.com/~lspitz/linux.html

and "watching your logs" at
http://rootprompt.org/article.php3?article=449

There's lots of worthwhile reading, IMHO, at Rootprompt.org.
