Cheap linux server

Right, just got my self a nice cheap P3 733Mhz, 128MB RAM server running RH9 for $45 a month to try and learn some sys admin responsibilites.

This thing has no control panel (like my other 2 servers) and has nothing but a plain RH9 install. On my other 2 servers I just add new accounts/users e.t.c so I've got the jist of how it works.

Anyone know what the inital steps should be to setting up a server that's secure and has the latest software releases on it?

Or is there a guide to setting up a RH9 server step by step?
