fyi, an alternative to the perchild mpm exists that I think works much better. It still requires a proccess for each vhost, but in many cases that is a small price to pay for the huge gains in security. muxmpm/metuxmpm for apache 2 The Metux MPM is an module for the Apache 2.0 Webserver which allows it to run several VirtualHosts under different User-IDs. Some other modules such as mod_cgid allow functionality which is superficially similar. Metux MPM allows you to control the process' user IDs from the central configuration, on the basis of individual or multiple VirtualHosts directives. Metux MPM is a project evolution from the perchild module included in the offical Apache 2 distribution. Where perchild was has somewhat languished and many bugs remain unfixed, the Metux MPM has been furiously advancing its development toward a stable release. NOTE: This does not work with mod_ssl. I run a patched metuxmpm version of apache 2 for my vhosts on port 80 and a seprate apache2 install for mod_ssl. official site: http://www.metux.de/mpm/ Download and instructions: http://www.sannes.org/metuxmpm/ ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.apache.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+48666 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48666&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+48666&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
