Changes

: May be to explain better my choice. After some serious problems with PHP (users who knew where an include with passwords lived, could see the content) I started to investigate the option of Apache threads with its own user credentials. That was the abonded project perchild. So there is not an easy technical solution. Also users hate safe_mode and open_basedir because it breaks there applications. They also want obscure CGI-scripts and all the things we administrators hate. I already used chrooted OpenSSH shell accounts. With the minimal servers I take that one step further. Now every user has total control (he/she can even be root) over his/her space.

: If I had to do my research again, I think I would still start with "shared webhosting". Not "application seperation". I think that my term, although not exactly correct, will draw more people to this site. I think of it as "user seperation", but that is the whole point of OpenVZ? As said, its your Wiki, so change it if you think it is better :-): --[[User:Hvdkamer|Hvdkamer]] 10:40, 2 August 2006 (EDT)

:: I changed the introduction to give some examples of the problems shared webhosting is facing. I think that you now could see were it is going? I'm still in the process of setting up this server. So I thought to start this page while I'm working on it. Because if you do it weeks later, most subtle points are lost :-):: --[[User:Hvdkamer|Hvdkamer]] 11:42, 2 August 2006 (EDT)
