Hi, folks! Due to some very unpleasant experience in the company I'm working at (rootshell attack due to a buffer overflow intrusion in httpd...) there's a great need with us to inform thoroughly about changing to a safer environment, that is LAMP or even better NAMP (NetBSD, Apache ... there are some very unpalatable truths in the world, indeed!).
Of topmost interest is building Apache and everything that is associated with it (particularly MySQL, PHP, Perl) within a chroot() environment to lock intruders within this special ,,root directory``. Do you know any pointer to chroot()-information that includes some kind of HOWTO rather than a list of advantages of this approach? Thanx in advance, -- Matthias Lampert .^.
