Interesting idea.
One solution to this would be to build a quick PHP script that would
allow users to manipulate the setting you want them
to then save them in the htdig.conf file.
but then PHP (IE usually "nobody" (pronounced *everybody*) has to have
write access to it which means anyone can change anything they want)
Something that important needs done by a real language with less
security exploits, IMHO
At one time someone build a PHP wrapper for configuring htdig.. this
would be a good starting point. I can't seem to find the code.. yet.
No need for any sort of special editor or interface, just in the config
file they do not have write access to does it need to be A or B:
a) if htdig uses the first instance of it then I need to specify it first:
whatever: they shouldn't be able to change this
include: their/file
b) if htdig uses the last instance of it then I need to specify it last
to override anything they put in:
include: their/file
whatever: they shouldn't be able to change this
Which way would make it so that even if they specified "whatever:" it
woudl still use the "whatever:" in the main config that they do not have
access to?
