Hi

In the default package there should be .htaccess files to prevent reading of .inc files. By default most Apache installations will allow reading of .inc files posing a security risk, so each directory containing these should have an htaccess file such as

Order allow,deny
Deny from all

in the 'program' directory to prevent people from gaining access to database passwords in the configuration.

"There have been hacker forums where, out of some misguided sense of hyper-courtesy, participants are banned from posting any fault-finding with another's posts, and told ''Don't say anything if you're unwilling to help the user.'' The resulting departure of clueful participants to elsewhere causes them to descend into meaningless babble and become useless as technical forums." - Eric Steven Raymond
