Security measures...

["Foz" <nospam [at] mmu.ac.uk>]

Hi,
	Now I have SuSE 6.3 up and running, the best measure to take 
for security. I am now letting other people use my machine 
(multiple accounts for regular users and a default guest account for 
everyone else), and I don't want to come back with either no linux 
left or root passwords changed or anything like that.
Any suggestions? Also if they are in the console, the halt 
command would be nice for users to get access to...
I have the BIOS password set, a decent root password (every two 
weeks gets changed) Am I missing anything else? I have seen a 
utility that returns the passwords fom the password file on UNIX 
systems - um... does this apply for Linux too?

Thanks
