Stop posting these terrible instructions to the list!  This is
terrible advice and should not be considered.  Wordpress is such a
huge vector for attacks, you need SELinux protecting your system.  You
don't need to be an expert, and people posting misleading information
only makes more people think so.

Also terrible advice!  That's just the case for your weird corner
case.  I looked at more of this post, and was amazed by the amount of
cargo-cult apache configuration advice that's listed.  mod_perl *and*
mod_php?  Each httpd must be huge!


Why are you even posting this to a public list?  Use your blog for
this kind of thing.  I know you have one, you post it repeatedly to
random lists.
