Wow, I must admit that I'm amazed to find this in the Mason book. No wonder we've seen a drop off in new orders for Mason! I would like to denounce that page in the book as pure FUD. (Sorry Dave) While it is very likely that there are hosts providing mod_perl in an insecure fashion, I would like to be made clear that SECURE shared hosting with mod_perl IS POSSIBLE. At the risk of seeming like self-promotion, I'd like to note that GrokThis.net has been providing secure mod_perl hosting since 2002, and will continue to do it for the foreseeable future! We give every user their own Apache service running as their user. At the cost of additional server resources, this provides a very capable work around for all of the problems with mod_perl in a shared hosting environment. Additionally, we've found that average memory usage for users of mod_perl is also very light, at least compared to the other services we offer. -- Eric Windisch GrokThis.net Hosting _______________________________________________ Mason-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mason-users
