I guess there is a small document for general advice..

from my recollection... of a few other general php/db stuff..

1. add php3_base_opendir to the a  directory so any php code executed can only
access a certain location.
  (note with our layered admin, the sysadmin domain should have access to /tmp
and /var/cvs so it needs overriding for the admin interface)
2. change the default database username/passwords..
3. do not put passwords into the SG0 midgard code? and maybe other Sitegroups.

any other ideas???

regards

alan
