From LQWiki

Let's break this down into sections and subsections. Otherwise we will end up with just a bunch of overly broad information, or wiki documents that each individually are too broad in scope

This page is fine in itself, and long descriptive visible links are fine. But it's creating a lot of problems when people don't search to see if the material is already covered under a shorter article title and, even when it isn't, create an article using these link titles. Trying to use the '|' link mechanism would help cut down on redundant or hard to find pages that need to be merged. For instance, this sort of thing

** [[Basic Linux file system attributes]]
** [[Users and groups]]

could be this sort of thing:

** [[Permissions|Basic Linux file system attributes]]
** [[Users]] and [[groups]]

I do not find this page "fine in itself", I find it very bad. I come here to learn how I can make my system secure and I get common blah blah how secure Linux already is, or I get presented concepts like "what is a user" and "gathering information". What a nonsense! --ThorstenStaerk 08:38, September 21, 2008 (UTC)

where should PAM go?--DennisDaniels 19:29, Aug 20, 2004 (EDT)

I do not like the article's structure. For example, where should "checking for weak passwords" go? To Basic Linux security or to basic system security? --ThorstenStaerk 09:05, September 21, 2008 (UTC)

The article structure of Linux Security Basics and Base System Security and networking and mail could be improved:

• security measures for all Linux users
• security measures for all Linux users who have a network
• security measures for all Linux users who use mail
• security measures for all Linux users who have a mail server

and so on. --ThorstenStaerk 09:45, September 21, 2008 (UTC)
