Installing OpenVZ
OpenVZ is operating system-level virtualization based on a modified Linux kernel that allows a physical server to run multiple isolated instances known as containers, virtual private servers (VPS), or virtual environments (VE).
Installing OpenVZ on a CentOS 4 or CentOS 5
Download - http://download.openvz.org/openvz.repo
Import the OpenVZ key
rpm –import http://download.openvz.org/RPM-GPG-Key-OpenVZ
Install the OpenVZ kernel
Depending on which kernel arch you want, simply do:
yum install ovzkernel.i386
or
yum install ovzkernel.x86_64
Reference - http://download.openvz.org/doc/OpenVZ-Users-Guide.pdf
1) Examine /etc/grub.conf to ensure the desired kernel is set to be the default,
2) Edit the /etc/sysctl.conf to enable some kernel features that are needed for OpenVZ and
3) Make sure SELINUX is disabled.
Installing Root Check
RootCheck scans the system looking for possible trojans ,scans the ports for malicious activity ,and checks for rootkits,and also the logs,permissions and more.
Rootcheck is a very simple software. Just download, unpack, compile and execute it. It will scan the system and print if it found or not anything.
Installation Instructions
Login to your server and su to root.
[root@ossec ~]# wget http://www.ossec.net/rootcheck/files/rootcheck-2.0.tar.gz
[root@ossec ~]# tar -zxvf rootcheck-2.0.tar.gz
[root@ossec ~]# cd rootcheck-2.0
[root@ossec ~]# make all
[root@ossec ~]# ./ossec-rootcheck
This will take you to an interactive installtion. Make sure you have CPAN on
your box because rootcheck requires the Perl Modules IO::Interface.
If the installtion is finished you will get this message
Compilation sucessfull. Ready to go.
———————————————————
That’s it! If everything went ok, you should be ready to run RootCheck. If you any doubts about installation, please refer to INSTALL file.
You can also find additional information at :
http://www.ossec.net/rootcheck/
Improves, patches, comments are very welcome.

Scanning the System
Now you are ready to run rootcheck.
There are quite a few options butthe simplest one is
Just run ‘./ossec-rootcheck’ to execute it.
–
./ossec-rootcheck
** Starting Rootcheck v2.0 by Third Brigade **
** http://www.ossec.net/en/about.html#dev-team **
** http://www.ossec.net/rootcheck/ **
Be patient, it may take a few minutes to complete…
[INFO]: Starting rootcheck scan.
[OK]: No presence of public rootkits detected. Analyzed 269 files.
[OK]: No binaries with any trojan detected. Analyzed 79 files.
If the installation was perfect you would get a progress screen of the scan after which the results wiill be writen into results.txt the result is quite explanatory and gives details of all suspected files.
There is also an example file that explains the different options for root check

Installing Virtualmin
If you have a fresh system running CentOS 5 or Debian 4.0 and want to install the full Virtualmin GPL stack (including Webmin, Apache, Postfix and other dependencies), the easiest way is to use the Virtualmin GPL install script. Otherwise, you should add it to an existing Webmin install, as described here.
Virtualmin can be downloaded in Webmin module format from:
http://download.webmin.com/download/virtualmin/virtual-server-3.73.gpl.wbm.gz (1.3 MB)
The Virtualmin framed theme in Webmin module format can be downloaded from:
http://download.webmin.com/download/virtualmin/virtual-server-theme-7.4.wbt.gz (2.2 MB)
You can install it by going to the Webmin Configuration module, clicking on Webmin Modules and use the first form on the page to install the downloaded .wbm.gz file. Or install it directly from the above URL. After installation the module will show up in the Servers category.
To install the theme, go to the Webmin Configuration module, click on Webmin Themes and install the downloaded .wbt.gz file. Once this is done, you should use the Webmin Themes page to make the new theme the default, if your system is to be primarily used for virtual hosting.
The same theme file can be used with Usermin too, to provide a similar user interface style and a better framed interface for reading email. To install it, go the Usermin Configuration module, click on Usermin Themes and install from the .wbt.gz file.
Installing Webmin on Debian
If you are using the DEB version of webmin, first download the file and then run the command :
dpkg –install webmin_1.480_all.deb
The install will be done automatically to /usr/share/webmin, the administration username set to root and the password to your current root password.
You should now be able to login to Webmin at the URL http://localhost:10000/. Or if accessing it remotely, replace localhost with your system’s IP address.
If Debian complains about missing dependencies, you can install them with the command :
apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
If you are installing on Ubuntu and the apt-get command reports that some of the packages cannot be found, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure the lines ending with universe are not commented out.
Some Debian-based distributions (Ubuntu in particular) don’t allow logins by the root user by default.
However, the user created at system installation time can use sudo to switch to root. Webmin will allow any user who has this sudo capability to login with full root privileges.
If you want to connect from a remote server and your system has a firewall installed, see this page for instructions on how to open up port 10000.
