if you're using a wizard to configure security you probably shouldn't be admining a server in the first place.

I disagree that the primary message is that the user is incompetent. If your server insecure out of the box in such simple ways that they can be fixed using a security wizard, you're using the wrong operating system. This is a server OS, it makes no sense to have it be insecure by default.
