Hello, Apache and PHP are very powerful and flexible tools. I have the _feeling_ that the way they are built and configured in the standard rpm, deb or tgz packages of most Gnu/Linux distributions is an overkill, or a potential security hole, for a system which must only run SMTP/IMAP servers and squirrelmail. Am I right? If yes, what are the best tips, tricks and configuration options (for apache and php) to make such a system as secure as possible and as light on the cpu as possible? Note: personally, I am only interested in things which can be done maintaining the standard binary packages provided with each distro, in order to keep the convenience of not compiling anything, getting automatic updates and so on, but even more advanced tricks are interesting, of course.
