[QUOTE="demo123, post: 728352, member: 37252"] [b]good Discussion[/b] [B]**************************************************** If some1 Reading this post carefully ( network Knowlage people ) HOW TO: Start your own home server [both Windows & Linux] [/B] he or she must have a Problem with xammpp go to In that post link [URL="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#1221"]http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#1221[/URL] go to [B] The XAMPP Security console [/B] As mentioned before, XAMPP is not meant for production use but only for developers in a development environment. XAMPP is configured is to be as open as possible and to allow the web developer anything he/she wants. For development environments this is great but in a production environment it could be fatal. Here a list of missing security in XAMPP: * The MySQL administrator (root) has no password. * The MySQL daemon is accessible via network. * PhpMyAdmin is accessible via network. * Examples are accessible via network. * The user of Mercury and FileZilla are known. According to this - I can tell Xampp is very good for testing out scripts but i don't think its save to use as a public server. Why I am saying this Check out [URL="http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/webserver.htm"]http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/webserver.htm[/URL] and also ***************************************************************************************************** NOTE: it is relatively easy to lock up, change root password, firewall your box, which is how most machines that are installed to access the internet come configured nowadays ALSO: as a precaution after everything is setup on ANY network or internet accessible machine, you should run a port scanner against it. there are sites & software dedicated to informing you whats what, what they are used for, and how to close them EXAMPLE: if you dont use port 21 all the time (or dont want it used) set the FTP Server (service or deamon)) to run manually, from a link or something like that, or [B]cron[/B] it at certain times.
