Chris Lamb has a good Debian installation checklist, from which I stole most of this list.

   1 # Configure sudo, adding my user to the sudo group so I don't get password prompts
   2 aptitude install sudo
   3 adduser xjjk sudo
   4 echo '%sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL' > /etc/sudoers.d/No-Passwords-for-sudo-Group
   5 chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/No-Passwords-for-sudo-Group
   6 
   7 # Disable installation of recommended packages
   8 echo 'APT::Install-Recommends "false";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90recommends
   9 
  10 # Configure locales to prevent harassment about it later
  11 aptitude install locales
  12 dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales
  13 # …or install all locales so they don't need to be configured/reinstalled
  14 aptitude install locales-all
  15 
  16 # Enable log compression with date suffixed extension
  17 cat /etc/logrotate.conf | sed "s/#compress/compress\ndateext/" > /etc/logrotate.conf.tmp
  18 mv /etc/logrotate.conf.tmp /etc/logrotate.conf
  19 
  20 # Disable root login—public key access only!
  21 cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config | sed "s/PermitRootLogin yes/PermitRootLogin without-password/" > /etc/ssh/sshd_config.tmp
  22 mv /etc/ssh/sshd_config.tmp /etc/ssh/sshd_config
  23 service ssh restart
