A lot of servers have been misconfigured with FastCGI and have PATH_INFO-related exploits. You can’t make the same mistake with mod_php. But all of this is very manageable. Distros and stacks (which is what the vast majority of users use, especially new users) will have the right setup out of the box. To the average new user it'll work just as it did before, non extra setup needed. Heck, we can even get "make install" to work properly with Apache FastCGI if we wanted to, and create a base setup that's fast and secure. Zeev
