Hello there,
I’m using the blackPanther OS as server on many hosts. The blackPanther OS installation and configuration is very easy. Here is an example for the simple Apache server:
#installing apache-mp-prefork
And then run it manually:
# services httpd start
You will get a blackPanther Webserver right now:
More security on my blackPanther OS-Webserver
I attached in to the update repository a few useful RPMs, if other people want to use the same service like I use in my the blackPanther OS servers.
New kernel variants are available:
Grsecurity is an extensive security enhancement to the Linux kernel
kernel-grsec-desktop-3.13.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm (also latest, source and devel rpm too)
kernel-grsec-server-3.13.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm (also latest, source and devel rpm too)
kernel-grsec-source-3.13.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm
Tool for GrSec kernels: gradm-3.0
RSBAC (Rule Set Based Access Control) is an open source access control framework for current Linux kernels
kernel-rsbac-desktop-3.4.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm (also latest, source and devel rpm too)
kernel-rsbac-desktop586-3.4.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm (also latest, source and devel rpm too)

kernel-rsbac-source-3.4.5-1bP-1-1bP.i586.rpm
For Rsbac kernel’s tool name is rsbac-admin (to run in terminal type: rsbac_menu and you will get this)
The next one is Tmux a very useful console based application to server managing or monitoring:
Tmux is a software application that can be used to multiplex several virtual consoles, allowing a user to access multiple separate terminal sessions inside a single terminal window or remote terminal session. It is useful for dealing with multiple programs from a command line interface, and for separating programs from the Unix shell that started the program.[1] It provides much of the same functionality as GNU Screen“
To run the blackPanther OS specified release type in termial: blackPanther-tmux [press enter] and you will get this :
The tmux installing and running howto:
