What services should I not run?
I currently have my Linux box running as a firewall with NAT using Firestarter. I am wondering if there is any services that I dont need to have running. I am using Redhat 8.0 with Gnome. The only services that I need to run are what is needed to use the firewall and nat. I dont need any FTP or mail services. I am very new at this, and I'm not sure what all of this stuff is...all though, I did get everything setup and running on my own as a first time Linux user.
This is what I having running:
