Securing a Server

Hi,

I have got my first dedicated server last week. At the moment I am trying to set it up securely in order to minimize the risk of intrusion at a later stage. I have gone through this forum and other websites, and already implemented some features. However, I would like to have advices from senior web hosting gurus on this matter. A list of steps like this

1. Never Give out passwords Securing a Server
2. Apply patches regularly.
