Greetings everyone,

Being used to a Red Hat install, I was used to part of it's installation that set up a firewall for you....

This got me to thinking.... what steps should one follow after a Knoppix HDD install?

These things come to my mind:

- configuration of a personal firewall
- updating the system
- removing unnecessary applications.

I think I sort of know now how ty update my system... but how does one go about configuring and using a personal firewall.?

I'd also appreciate tips, tricks, and information on the post-installation routine....

Anyway, thanks a million and I'm absolutely glad I'm typing on a Debian / Knoppix platform right now...[/list]
