A lot of places. SecurityFocus (http://www.securityfocus.com/) has a
Linux section with docs on how to harden a Linux box. They also have
a Vulnerabilities database. To actually check the machine, try nmap
(http://www.insecure.org/nmap/), though interpreting its results is
needs a good knowledge of TCP/IP. An easier tool is nessus
(http://www.nessus.org/). Ho, and they're both free.

Cheers,

Lionel
