I plan to put a back-end database behind the firewall este MySQL. If I put a webserver to serve some forms that will call on the database. What is the easiest and secure scripting language I need to make the calls to the database. Powerful is good but I need to learn the scripting language fast. What is this ASP, JSP,CGI, Perl or PHP. I just plan to implement it on a pure Linux. What scripting language should I start doing it.

IMHO, PHP would be the easiest to learn, there are tons of howto's and tutorials on the web and bookstores about PHP/MySQL implementation, there are also pros and cons, (one is security), if you end up using PHP, make sure to follow tutorials which deals with global variables the secure way.



Another question is it implementable. One NIC will face the internal and do the database calls and the other NIC will face the Internet. Let me know if I am just making it very hard.

Can do, using a typical demilitarized zone (DMZ) setup.


Thanks for your advice.
