HP-UX system configuration Audit/check
I have to analize/check/Audit the system configuration of several HP-UX servers, and i was looking in the forum for recommendations on what to check, I have a small list, but I was hoping you could point me out more things to check out..
-Filesystem space(close to filling up FS)
-Network config(lan negotation and errors)
-Mirror config (mirrored lvols,bootconf,etc)
-Patch level, Driver level, firmware level
-product state(swverify ....,)
-Swap config (enough swap)
-dump/crash config (crashconf, etc)
-syslog/dmesg for errors
-boot/shutdown log for errors

Re: HP-UX system configuration Audit/check
your list of tast looks good,
but i would recomend to use
SysInfo or cfg2html to collect all your servers configuration.

Re: HP-UX system configuration Audit/check
1.world writable files,
2.zero bytes files,
3.check for insecure services such as telnet, ftp, rlogin, rcp, etc.
4. check for .rhosts files and remove them for better security
5. check for terminals in /etc/securetty which allow direct root login. It should contain only 1 entry i.e console for security purpose.
