I would like to add my few cents but sincerely, I don't know where to
start, or what to do. I have a few recommendations, in form of
firewall rules and sysctl tunable parameters.
Feel free to email the authors and discuss with them, or use this list.
The Wiki is a very easy way to contribute; just start by going to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ and make an account for yourself if you
don't have one yet. The important thing is to get involved! That's
what the Fedora community is all about.
