What are some other simple security measures ?
 

Slackware 12.2
KDE 4.5

My system is strickly a destop computer, I do not use any type of remote

access like ssh, I dont run a server and dont use any kind of special

mail, just regular E-mail.

I disabled remote login in one of the ssh config files,
I commented out some lines in /etc/inetd.conf and in sshd.conf

Can I delete telnet, nfs, ssh, ssshd, rsh and rlogin files without affecting the funcionality of my system?

What other files can I modify or simply delete to eliminate remote access and harden my system?

Thanks for any help. :)

Do you use telnet, nfs, ssh, ssshd, rsh or rlogin?

As far as I know, No I do not use them.

It is usually better to remove packages than simply to delete files.

The telnet client is OK. It is a handy tool for testing connectivity.
NFS is for sharing files with computers on the LAN. If you have only one computer, you can remove it.
You said you don't use ssh, so you could remove the ssh-server package.

Absolutely get rid of rsh and rlogin. Ssh was written to replace them.

Thanks for the tips guys. :)
