With most of the jobs I have had (Here in the US), web developers usually are not only the developers, but also the DBA, sys admin, network admin, project manager, etc...

In keeping with the automotive analogies, I feel that what Raymond is essentially saying, is that he would not hire you to drive a car, unless you were a mechanic. I feel differently about this, as I would rather hire a chauffeur to drive me around than a mechanic - but this is my personal preference of course. Would I expect my chauffeur to be able to diagnose a flat tire and change it? Absolutely. Would I expect him to be able to diagnose and fix a problem in the engine management system? Absolutely not. In the same way I personally feel, that although a developer should know (or be able to deduce) about potential security issues like the ones you describe, I would not expect him to know about all the internals of the server. If nothing else, I think we can safely say, that Mr. Camden would not employee me, as I would much rather leave setting up servers and the likes, to those who specialize in precisely that :) (oh and on a side note, I find it very interesing to learn about the obviously different views expressed in this thread - gives a man something to ponder) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:354247 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
