Securing CentOS Server

I'm setting up a production CentOS Linux server at work.  This will be my first production Linux box, I've always done Windows installs in the past.  I wanted to disable the root user account from logging into the system, and change the default SSH port number.  I found this nice guide (http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/SecuringSSH) on the CentOS site that details just how to do that.
