Document on Customizing OpenBSD after install
Is there a checklist someplace on what to do after the install of OpenBSD 2.2?
I'm thinking like:
1) Go into /etc
a) Verify disks and network interfaces configured correctly.
Files: fstab, hosts, myname, hostname.le0, mygate, resolv.conf, defaultdomain.
You might wish to turn off multicast routing in /etc/netstart.
b) Edit motd to make lawyers comfortable and delete "Welcome".
c) Fix passwd via "vipw" to change passwords, set up users, etc.
Make sure password on "root". Default is no password from console, and
disabled from network. Make sure to edit "group" for any user groups,
and to put people into the wheel group if they need root access.
d) Any local configuration change in: rc.conf, rc.local
e) printcap, hosts.lpd Get printers set up
f) Tighten security:
fbtab Set security for X
inetd.conf Turn off extra stuff, add that which is really needed.
rc.securelevel Turn on Network Time Protocol.
g) kerberosIV Get kerberos configured. Remember to get a srvtab.
h) aliases Local mail delivery (set postmaster, etc). Run newaliases
after changes.
i) bootptab If this is a bootp server.
j) ccd.conf If using concatenated disks (striped, etc).
k) exports If this is an NFS server.
m) NIS (old yellow pages), hosts.equiv, defaultdomain, etc.
n) ifaliases for www, etc.
o) daily, weekly, monthly.
p) "amd" directory if using this package.
q) rbootd if needed for remote booting (ethernet MAC address to IP translation).
r) Any other files and directories in /etc.
2) crontab -l. Do you need anything else?
3) After the first nights security run, change ownerships and permissions on things.
Best bet is to have permissions as in the security list.
