Can the big nut at the bottom of the steering rack be tightened? I have a small leak just at the nut.

I drained all fluid out and replaced with comma psf with some sort of conditioner for the seals. No drips so far! So hopefully sorted anyway.

Never worked for me - I went for a re-conditioned rack in the end.

If it is the large nut with either a bolt or grub screw in the middle then it can be altered but you have to do both together to set it correctly, and know how to do them.

No, it's more like the head of a bolt like a 22mm or something.  It's the lowest point of the steering rack.
