I have a remote dedicated server running CentOS 6.2 x64bit with ISPConfig3. This is a brand new install.

Server Purpose: Basic LAMP Web Hosting with PureFTPD, BIND, CLAMAV, RKHunter.

Any advice or link to a guide which will clearly explain how to optimize the CSF+LFD configuration is greatly appreciated. I am not exactly sure on where to start what I shouldn't loosen the restrictions on.

At the moment my inbox is flooding with alerts from LFD such as:

Suspicious process running under user postfix
