Denis:
A PaX/ Grsecurity setup is another option to consider. PaX
<http://pageexec.virtualave.net> is a kernel patchset that implements a
non-executable stack, complete address space randomisation, mprotect()
restrictions, trampoline emulation, etc. IIRC, PaX is more mature than
openwall, the implementation that we use in Gentoo Hardened is rock
solid and very well done. Grsecurity <http://www.grsecurity.net> is a
kernel patchset that offers some very mature security measures such as
fs and proc restrictions, robust ACLs, and network protections.

Cheers,
//John
