No, this isn't what I mean at all. I have a Mason site. I want to give it to someone else to put on their own server, but I don't want them to see the perl code. Instead I want to compile perl (or do something to it) so that they can not change the site and any changes would have to be made by me since I retain the original perl source (which would require recompiling after I made the changes...).
Sorry if there was some confusion about what I meant. Ryan On Dec 15, 2007, at 10:21 PM, Raymond Wan wrote: > > Hi, > > namotco wrote: >> Of course.
