hi yall,
i'm a total noob to linux, so plz excuse my ignorance :)
i just installed linux-mandrake 8.0 yesterday. over night and today, i
finally got 3 named Vhost running. plz look over my vhost settings and let
me know if i have them configured the RIGHT way... and apache quits
responding at different times...
(packard bell, p233mmx, 128ram)
#1>
i found the command
( /sbin/service httpd stop )
( /sbin/service httpd start )
is there a way to place a shortcut on my desktop to restart apache?
and what could make apache stop responding?
#2>
plz look over and inform me of any security issues
view site and var ( http://gsp.ath.cx )
excuse my ignorance... i've never even seen unix/linux till yesterday
first i need some input on directory structure
i'm writing this mail as i set this new account up with each step
---------------------------------------------
(/var/www/html) (/var/www/cgi-bin) > default apache dir's
is it ok to set my own like the following?
i created
dir /vhost (usergroup root/root)right? 755
dir /vhost/gsp (usergroup apache/apache) 755
dir /vhost/gsp/html (usergroup gsp, gsp) 755
dir /vhost/gsp/cgi-bin (usergroup gsp, gsp) 755
is this ok?
---------------------------------------------
then i added user account
gsp (home dir= /vhost/gsp) (groups= apache, ftp)
is this ok?
---------------------------------------------
i logged in and uploaded test files ftp
it worked so i created other 2 accounts same way
