RE: [users@httpd] Compression and Security

[Arthur Guy]

Does gzip compression and browser decompression support images or is it just html and text? The mod_deflate documentation doesn’t say anything about images except for instructions on how to get it to not compress them.   Is the name mod_security correct, searching for it in the documentation doesn’t return anything?   Thanks Arthur   [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Praveen Alavilli [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 June 2005 20:40 To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: Re: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Compression and Security   you should check out Apache modules mod_deflate & mod_security Arthur Guy wrote on 6/25/2005, 3:13 PM: There are two things I have been trying to find out about apache but I have been unable, I hope you guys can help.   The first thing is compression, on my current IIS server I have a utility that compresses the site and files before it is sent, the users browser then unzips them, is there a similar thing for apache? Is it already installed? If not where would I get it from?   The second thing is security, for IIS there is a security patched called IIS Lockdown, it installs several filters which monitor the URL among other thing, this picks up malformed and other potentially dangerous requests before they reach there server; does apache have a similar thing, does it need something like this?     Thanks for any advice Arthur   [EMAIL PROTECTED]   'a star solutions' disclaimer The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
