5.3.1 Configure the Services
To configure the existing features, use the following commands:
For the Network parameters, use netconfig
To change the host and domain name, use changehostname
For the Date/Time, use timeconfig
For the authentication protocols, use authconfig
To customize the SCS configuration for your location,
we suggest you do the following:
* CHANGE THE ROOT PASSWORD!!!
* reconfigure the network (netconfig)
* set the timezone, if not in the Eastern U.S. (timeconfig)
* add users (adduser)
* edit the ntp.conf file and then enable the ntpd service
For extra security:
* edit the sshd_config file to not allow root logins
* when all settings are changed, reboot the system to save any
changes
