suphp whats your thoughts?
« on: March 05, 2012, 03:16:48 PM »
I know ipoli said not to use it. Im a trade pulse and smart thumbs user, and am looking to get ideas about using (or not using)suphp with these 2 scripts.

Anyone know this setup and had any luck or not? what are the problems that could arise with suphp? I feel alot safer knowing 777 is not used, as smart thumbs is a hackers dream as well with all the 777 files.

I ran a test with a dead site using st and the newest tp, updated fine, had to manually play with the toplists but they work now.

TP is saving my settings ok, might go ahead with a site with some traffic for more testing.

If the TP hack was because of a hacked updater, then really if a server thats not hacked would require to lock those down? i didnt try locking down with a suphp setup server.

Anyone care to comment or maybe someone who has used this setup?

Problem with suphp is that php files run as user files, so basically if hacker gets in, he can change all files which U uploaded etc - in theory good idea - in practice - SHIT :)
