Defend Your SSH Server
If you manage one or more servers, chances are you employ SSH for remote management of that server. If you’ve checked the logs for your SSH server (you do check your logs, don’t you?), chances are you’ve seen plenty of these:
Oral Surgery - 24 Hours Later

Networking 201: Running your own DNS server
Setting up your own DNS server is an effective way to enable more interaction between systems on your network. While NetBIOS and WINS can enable the same kinds of interactions without requiring users to resort to IP addresses, they often don’t work effectively in mixed-system environments (e.g. Windows and Mac computers) or where networks may be connected but yet distinct (such as a satellite office); further, many personal firewall products result in these systems simply not working at all.
