Install Geeklog on OS X 10.2
Authored by: strachan on Feb 17, '03 02:51:18PM

Hey

Thanks for turning me onto such a time waster! :-)

I'm learning the serve my own web pages and using geeklog is one way to admin a dynamic site.

Right now I've got two different CMS' (geeklog & tikiweb) running on my TiBook (so I can learn). I use phpMyAdmin for my mysql databases.

Anyway, can you talk about the security issues of using OS X, php, apache, & geeklog? Such as what settings, owners, group, (of the files/directory) etc. should be? What to look for, what to watch out for, etc? How would the settings need to be changed if you were serving from a host or from home like me? Would these settings still be valid if you were serving from another pltaform?

Right now, I have all files/directories in 'WebServer/Documents/' owned by www, group by admin.

Btw, after updating to OSX 10.2.4 'WebServer/Documents/' is owned by root and can't be written too.

Hmm, that's not really my area of expertise! I rely on my site admin for the hosted site, and my router and firewall for sites served at home. You might try asking on the Geeklog site, though they won't be much help on the Mac side of the question...
