As of now all session data is stored in one directory - thus allowing access to that data from all virtual servers (if php4 is compiled as mod_php). Now an ISP's clients can spy their clients' personal data if once stored as session variable. A bad situation - i think. the server name should be part of the session store path and fopen (e.a.) should be validated against the session store path. Boris
