Hardening cookbook for HP-UX

Does anyone have a hardening cookbook for HP-UX. We need to do this before we put the box in production and I'd like to see if we have missed anything.

I would suggest things like eliminating TCP/IP services not needed from inetd.

Increase logging of FTP activity (see man inetd; and tighten usage (see man 4 ftpusers).
