Hi

Fedora does very well compared to other systems in this.

"After the first reboot, the network card came on-line for a final stage of installation configurations. Fedora's installer prompted for security configurations on the firewall whereupon ports were opened for FTP, Mail, NFS, SSH, Samba, HTTPS, telnet and HTTP. No changes were made to the default SELinux policies.72 Nmap could not identify the operating system, guessing incorrectly Sun Solaris 10. Unlike other Nmap scans which took only seconds, this scan lasted for 26 minutes and resulted in numerous filtered ports which is behavior indicative of a default firewall. A Nessus scan against Fedora 6 during the configuration process revealed no direct vulnerabilities to the host itself.73"
