Abstract
The installation of a System that have to host a legacy software and, at the same time, guarantee a certain security and availability degree, is a task that must take care of several aspects. Legacy software, in fact, makes it harder to build a secure system. This is because one of the principal security issues concern the presence of bugs in software. Each software, in general, has some bugs, and the number of bugs increases as the software complexity does. Such errors are discovered time by time during the software utilization, once they are known, they can be corrected by the software developers, who care of producing and distributing software updates. A not-updated software presents errors not corrected, that may produce the system crash. Often, since they may be known, can be exploited by attacker for taking control of the system. This document wants to propose some guidelines for the installation and confi- guration of a operating environment that have to host a legacy software. It is used as a case study the configuration of a system for hosting SearchServer™, which release had been distributed ten years earlier.
