AW: Apache Virtual Hosts Chroot ?

2003-02-25 Thread debian-isp

How about running PHP in safe mode?  In safe mode (as far as I
understand) user scripts can only access files with the same uid.

Hm but they do have the same uid as they are uploaded via http and under the webserver 
user ...

 Hi all !
 
 I am just asking myself how to secure our webserver with a couple of 
 virtual hosts.
 Currently we have a large installation of typo3 running. It 
has a feature called fileadmin with which you can easily 
upload files. As it is thereby possible to upload php scripts 
and execute via the browser it is to my opionion possible to 
access other users files. As the webserver and the files all 
have the same user, needed by the system. 
 Is there a way to secure this: 
 
 - chrooting virtual hosts in apache ?
 - running multiple instances of apache 
 - some kind of security system with users and groups 
 - using directory settings ? 
 
 Any ideas
