Sometimes linux hosting users need to change the permissions on a folder to use upload scripts or other applications that need this permissions.

With chmod 777 ther folder gain the rights: writing / execute and read for everyone. Hackers like this folders.

How can you protect that folders?
You can turn PHP off on that folder and disable php / html / perl files.

How can it be done?
Create this .htaccess in the folder:

php_flag engine off
<Files ~ "\.(php*|s?p?html|cgi|pl)$">
deny from all
</Files>

Thats it, you just increased the security level on this folders.

"If all you want to do is share data between your Linux box and the BlackBerry, no sweat. The 2GB Micro SD storage I inserted in my 8800 is available to my Linux system just like any other USB storage device. When I connect the USB cable to the BlackBerry, I simply say yes when Ubuntu asks if I want to enter Mass Storage Mode, and I can copy music and photos to the phone. I have run into a problem getting the audio for videos that were created with Kino to work correctly, but other than that, moving data back and forth between the PDA and the desktop "just works."

The Barry and OpenSync projects aim to provide a little more functionality than just moving data. According to its home page, the Barry project "is a GPL C++ library for interfacing with the RIM BlackBerry Handheld. It comes with a command-line tool for exploring the device and a GUI for making quick backups. This project's goal is to create a fully functional syncing mechanism on Linux." Release 0.11, which I've been playing with the past week, goes a long way toward meeting those goals. With it, you can explore, backup and restore, and -- with a little help from OpenSync -- sync databases. There is, however, some assembly required."

NetBDS 4 is out | Download NetBSD4

NetBSD is a free, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system available for many platforms, from 64-bit Opteron machines and desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices. Its clean design and advanced features make it excellent in both production and research environments, and it is user-supported with complete source. Many applications are easily available through pkgsrc, the NetBSD Packages Collection.

All of the code is under non-restrictive licenses, and may be used without paying royalties to anyone. Free support services are available via our mailing lists and website.

Security:
* The FAST_IPSEC IPsec implementation was extended to use hardware acceleration for IPv6, in addition to the hardware accelerated IPv4 that was available before.
* mprotect(2) got restrictions to enforce W^X policies, from PaX.
* GCC 4's support for stack smashing protection (SSP) was enabled by adding libssp.
* The kernel authorization framework kauth(9) was added, replacing the traditional BSD credential management and privileged operation access control with an abstract layer, allowing the implementation of various security models either as part of the NetBSD distribution or as third-party LKMs.
NetBSD's kernel authorization is a hybrid clean-room implementation of a similar interface developed by Apple, extending its capabilities and combining concepts of credential inheritance control.

Change to the user you want to, then open the crontab editor:
# crontab -e

you can use this variables:

a = the minute after the hour that you want it done
b = the hour you want it done
c = Day of the Month
d = Month of the Year
e = Day of the week
f = 'command you want to execute'
* = ALL

Example:
10 0 * * * /usr/local/aplication
It will run the application every day at 12:10 AM.
* * * - means all day of the month, all month of the year, all day of the week

Other crontab commands:
crontab -e opens the editor
crontab -l lists the contents of the crontab
crontab -r removes the crontab

Don't let your neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. You should replace the default passwords on every device you purchase with passwords of your own. It means that every router, access point or other networking device comes with the same password. Imagine how many ""dlink"" networks there would be in the world if none of our customers renamed their routers? Hackers make it a point to know every company's default passwords. By simply defining a new password, one that will certainly be easier for you to remember than the default, you will establish the protection you need to halt hackers from accessing your network or devices.

Additional applications and modules have been written, adding many capabilities not found in Apple's firmware."

The project was started by David Reveman of Novell (SUSE) and first released on January 2, 2006." ( Font: Wikipedia.org )
