Re: Apache Configuration




What security model do these have ? Passwords ? Use SSL/SSH ? Usable from
Mozilla or require special client ? Proxy ? 

Places such as geocities allow ppl. to upload stuff by FTP or server
publishing, but server administration is another issue. Since the result
of a mistake is, er... public, and immediately so, I think that the
security issue should be as high as that of root passwords and denial of
service attack prevention.  What about that ? 

Incidentally I also had this issue in mind, but with a different approach.
I wrote a small web server that is simple enough to minimize security
problems, and I will try to write a Netscape plugin that cooperates with
it in secure mode. In case you were wondering if it works, ppl. who went
to www.actcom.co.il:1997 used it yesterday and 2 days before.
