Yep, that's my main motivation for not even attempting it. There are a ton of security settings alone. I am not gonna be the idiot who will let a 14-year old bored script kiddie into my VPS-es so they can have a laugh at my expense.

I prefer the managed services. Save for the high availability you get tons of best security practices -- all for a few bucks a month. It's usually a such a crazy cheap deal it's almost not fair to them.
