Hi,
    I am working with the Kernel config file to optimize it and also to improve the 
overall security of the system!
 
I have the following quetions:
(1) There are a few options that are not available in the default kernel... like the 
IPFIREWALL options(and the like)... I basically need to know all possible options I 
can add to the kernel config file! 
(2) I guess these options can be used to set the kernel variables accessible through 
the sysctl command. So can I create my own options so that I can set a few kernel 
variables as and when I build the custom kernel?
(3) and also my aim includes optimizing the kernel... so by enabling only the options 
I need to I should get a get optimization... is there anything else that can be done?
(4) My aim is to improve local and network security. I guess enabling IPFIREWALL helps 
with the network security part.... are there any special options for local security?
 
Thank you.
 
HKR
