 Add a bit of entropy to the TCP sequence number and drop ICMP redirects:
 <code>
-systune ipforwarding 0
+# systune ipforwarding 0
-systune ip6forwarding 0
+# systune ip6forwarding 0
-systune tcpiss_md5 1
+# systune tcpiss_md5 1
-systune icmp_dropredirects 1

-systune allow_brdaddr_srcaddr 0

-systune tcp_2msl 60
+# systune tcp_2msl 60
 </code>
 These kernel settings can be found in the /var/sysgen/stune file.
+Finally:
+<code>
+# autoconfig -vf
+# reboot
+</code>
+===== Make sendmail just listen on localhost =====
+Edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc. Switch the two lines to be:
+<code>
+DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=MTA-v4,Family=inet,Addr=127.0.0.1')dnl
+dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=MTA-v6,Family=inet6')dnl
+</code>
+Then run configmail to update sendmail.cf and restart it:
+<code>
+# configmail mc2cf
+# /etc/init.d/mail restart
+</code>
