Default Must Have Software For Your VPS

I'm currently looking around for decent security tools to install on my VPS and it got me wondering what tools other people use.

So far i've installed

rkhunter - http://www.rootkit.nl/projects/rootkit_hunter.html
chkroot - http://www.chkrootkit.org/
tripwire - http://sourceforge.net/projects/tripwire/
logwatch - http://www.logwatch.org/

Is there anything else that i might find useful or a tool that you just cant live without that you feel would be good to share?

Andrew

Id suggest either CSF or APF + BFD as well as Snort.
