[Paul Sutton] | | - Decide how the backend can write to the config files and signal the | server (does this have to be a separate server with setuid scripts - | yuck - or can we get something like a Unix-socket interface to | Apache?)
the only thing you need to be root in order to do is to kick (SIGHUP) the server in order to restart it. that can be accomplished in a few lines of C code. you may want to add some security stuff to it (like how often we can kick the server and who gets to kick it). | - Add API functions so that the backend configuration process | can _automatically_ pickup directive syntax and usage information from | Apache rather than have to be hard-coded with directive information | (which may change depending on which modules are compiled in). that was a very good idea. -Bj�rn -- Bj�rn Borud <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | "The Net interprets censorship <URL:http://www.pvv.unit.no/~borud/> | as damage and routes around it."
