      I made a really good SaltStack state for Linux hardening. Works great, and now pass OpenVAS with flying colours for example.

      Did you post it here? If so, I missed it...

                  And this is why we need a way to post articles/how-to's in something other than a discussion thread. They get lost and forgotten.

                    Tags help a TON with this. Look up SaltStack tag for example.

                      It helps, but overtime it will still get buried. In addition, if, as happens frequently, the original post receives input from replies, it may no longer be 100% accurate. There is no way to deduce that without reading the entire comment chain. Forums are terrible places to store knowledge imo.

                        That's mostly true, although there are ways to make it work better. Like the Linux Admin book.
