Please read: http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/1.0/guide/performance.html#Know_Your_Operating_System > What about security issues between mod_perl and mod_php-- any significant > differences? The mod_perl core is as secure as Apache. The code that people run on mod_perl servers varies. But it has little to do with mod_perl Read: http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/1.0/guide/porting.html#Taint_Mode http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/1.0/guide/security.html http://www.w3.org/Security/Faq/www-security-faq.html http://www.gunther.web66.com/FAQS/taintmode.html > Please, no flames. Is this the best list for these questions? If you have questions regarding mod_perl *after* you read the vast documentation at: http://perl.apache.org/release/docs/ and *after* you've searched the archives: http://perl.apache.org/release/maillist/modperl.html#Searchable_Archives please feel to write the questions at: http://perl.apache.org/release/maillist/modperl.html Hope this helps. __________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH ------> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com
