It rather depends on what the webapp is written in (PHP, Perl, Java, C, C++, whatever) and what frameworks they're dependent on. You might be able to run the webserver part under lighthttpd or nodejs, then again you might need something more complex like ngnix, Apache or Tomcat. It rather depends on what you're doing. > I've been looking at different sites/vids to see what's involved with >> really setting up the OS for the webapp deployment.

Again, Sam's got it. SELinux keeps processes from gaining privileges they shouldn't have and writing data to spots they shouldn't. If you keep all of the code and such in the places SELinux expects them, they write to files and directories they're allowed to and they don't try to use privileged operations they shouldn't (e.g. executing code off the stack, etc.), you shouldn't have any issues. This includes all the underlying bits (PHP shouldn't write to the wrong directories, etc.). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - We are born naked, wet and hungry.
