Seems everyone is having "privileges" problems. <G>
I got a message from someone who attempted to use a form on my website and got an error message. I tried and got a 405 also. grrrrr ... I checked to make certain the .pl was where it was supposed to be, I checked the page code to make certain it hadn't gotten flummoxed, and finally wrote my ISP techies to see if maybe path to perl had changed on their servers or ??? Techie found, after checking everything else, Apache made its perl more secure -- defaulting to being willing to accept scripts only from directories /cgi-bin ... and I was using a different directory name for my scripts. But since it is Apache, and since I've got a really good "Linux Very Competent" techie who helps me, he was able to change the "acceptable" default to include my script directory, and *only* my directory, of another name. I'd rather have a secure ISP that requires a little work now and then, than being stuck with who knows what vulnerabilities that some of the other options offer. <G> And you have my permission to quote me. ==== On Thu, 10 Oct 2002 18:55:47 +0000, Michael Polak wrote: > arachne-digest should work again now, i fixed the privileges > (we were reinstalling system on server - security focus...) > -- > Michael "xChaos" Polak, +420 603 872 631 > http://arachne.cz/ - webhosting, Linux, WWW browser Arachne > http://teckacz.cz/ - e-zine pro roztristene vedomi > http://mp3records.cz/ - download music 100% legal and free > http://vojna.cz/ - hnuti za zruseni vojenske i civilni sluzby > http://legalizace.cz/ - stop drug war and release victims! -- Arachne V1.70;rev.3, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
