1 I haven't seen the problem on this list (but I haven't
2 been on this list for very long) but it is a well
3 known problem. You can use php in
4 safe-mode(http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php)
5 which does if the file a script tries to manipulate
6 has the same owner as the php script. In safe-mode you
7 can also limit access to certain directories and
8 disable certain functions and classes.
9 If you want top security you should set up multiple
10 chrooted apaches(one for each vitualhost) but (i
11 think) this is only possible with IP-based
12 vitualhosts.
