List of tools you install on your debian/red-hat server [closed]

Here in a list of tools I install after a fresh install (debian most of time):

• logcheck: to check the log files and generate reports
• apticron: send me e-mails when packages updates are available
• aide: to check the system integrity
• vim: ;-)
• ethtool & ifstat: to get my network interface speed
• denyhosts or fail2ban: to block bruteforce ssh connection attempts
• chkrootkit: check for rootkits
• openntpd: for ntp synchro
• upgrade-system: to keep the system up-to-date

update:

• sysstat: system statistics (iostat, sar...)
