Hello, My former school has invited me to teach a small course (32 hours) about web development, and I will of course teach PHP and mySQL. The question I now have is the following: How shall I best go about installing PHP and mySQL on a Windows 2000 computer (no Linux, sorry) so that each of the 16 groups of students have access to their files, databases, etc, without having problems with security ? I know how to configure mySQL access rights, so that will be fine. I can also install a small FTP server so that everyone has access to a subdirectory of the wwwroot directory. But how about PHP? If anyone has already done this, I'd be more than happy to hear from you. Basically, I am in the situation of setting up a "micro hosting provider" with PHP, mySQL support, running Win2k ;) Thanks !
