Topic: Sandbox for CGI-Scripts

[Sebastian Slota]

I'm looking for a way to run CGI-Scripts for each user in a sandbox, so errors don't crash the server.
Is it implemented in SME Server V5, or do I need something else?
Is it possible to find some resources on that matter???
Right now I'm running a SuSe as a server, and tried this weekend to set up an E-Smith.

NEED HELP!!!!!


Thanks in advance!!!

Standard practice is to setup a test environment that mirrors the "live environment."  This would be a really simply thing to do, but would require an additional machine to install SME on.

What I want to ist let users create their own cgi files.
I want to reconfigure apache to run the cgi files from home directory of the users.
I want to make clear that their scripts run with *their own ID*.
*that the log-files show me which script run under which ID.

Is it already implemented in e-smith??
Ii've found something in my logfiles...
*suid* or the like...
