Enable NIS doesn’t need to be selected since we are not configuring a NIS service on this server. IV) Components to Install After your partitions have been configured and selected for formatting, you are ready to select packages for installation. By default, Linux is a powerful operating system that executes many useful services. However, most of these services are unneeded and pose a potential security risk. You first have to choose which system components you want to install. Choose the components, and then you can go through and select or deselect each individual package of each component by selecting (Select individual packages) option. Since we are configuring a Linux Server, we don’t need to install a graphical interface (XFree86) on our system (graphical interface on a server mean; less process; less cpu; less memory; security risks and so on). Graphical interface is usually used on workstation only. Select the following packages for installation. Networked Workstation Network Management Workstation Utilities After selecting the components you wish to install, you may select or deselect packages. Note: select the (Select individual packages) options (very important) before continuing to have the possibility to select and deselect packages
