Configuring Ubuntu, F.A.Q.'s, How To's, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Server

First off by disguising our server header most automatic programs (bots) will try a exploit that is made for your server!

Step one:

Install Mod Security

Step two:

Edit the mod security config to reflect a different serve:

nano /etc/modsecurity/modsecurity_crs_10_config.conf

look for the line that begins with:

SecServerSignature "Microsoft-IIS/7.0"
