I spent the better half of last night and this morning configuring the security settings for both this blag and the whole apache setup. I’m pretty tired, but I figure I’d post one more time. Tomorrow I’ll add a section titled “Devo’s” I’m pretty excited because in a few days, my first devotional journal will be completely full. It took me almost 3 years to fill it up. From my perspective, I think I could’ve filled it up faster. Late nights like tonight often hinder any meaningful conversations with God. I either skip journaling altogether or worse, I’ll end up rereading my sorry attempt at an entry in the morning which often looks like a mini seismograph of the 1989 earthquake…
Anywho… I’m pretty beat. I basically gave myself a crash course in Apache land. I learned how to secure directories with both httpd.conf and .htaccess files among other equally exciting things:
- chmod isn’t needed under Windows’ OS
- securing a server is hard and it can never be “too secure”
- securing things down often break more things than you realize
- you’ll never know what’s broken until you try EVERYTHING
- had a crash course in php
- also had a mysql refresher crash course
- no-ip.com is the greatest service ever
See aren’t you getting sleepy from just reading that? With that said, good night and adieu!
