RE: [PHP] Microsoft .NET arguement

Hi, I will give MS credit, they are aware they need to do better, and are making strides to be better. I won't fault them on that until they give up, or stop progressing. As for secure environments and code, even linux+php applications and servers can be volnerable. I think the whole OS vs OS arguments, and Code vs Code arguments (in regards to security) are humorous. Yes, get a good firewall, and have an auditor audit your system and code. That will give you a secure environment. -Dan Joseph > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike R [mailto:spycobalt@spyproductions.com] > Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 11:28 AM > To: lists-php-replies@listmail.innovate.net > Cc: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: RE: [PHP] Microsoft .NET arguement > > > > Actually, their claim is that Microsoft environments are secure - you just > need the proper firewall (that, basically, the problems with Windows boxes > has to do with the firewall, not the OS). > > That one I laughed at. > > -Mike > > > > > and next they will no doubt claim that IIS (and windowz in general) is a > > secure environment -- just the place to run your important applications. > > > > > > > > ---------- Original Message ---------- > > > From: Mike R <spycobalt@spyproductions.com> > > > To: php-general@lists.php.net > > > Date: Monday, November 17, 2003 11:06:37 AM -0500 > > > Subject: [PHP] Microsoft .NET arguement > > > > > > > > > I have someone here at my desk arguing that Microsoft's .NET is better > > > than PHP - faster to process, easier and quicker to program, etc. > > > > > > They also (claim) that Microsoft's SQL is much faster and such vs. > > > MySQL. > > > > > > Any comments to help me defend PHP or to educate me? > > > > > > :) > > > > > > -Mike > > > > > > -- > > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > > > ---------- End Original Message ---------- > > > > > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
