Topic: Activating PHP For A USER Website

[Jim Hale]

Is this possible?

I want to setup a Test PHP-Nuke site (since the new version was released today) and when I cruise to http://hale.dyndns.org/~nuke6 , all it does is show the PHP code instead of running it.

Works fine under an IBay though.

User webspace only allows html, no php or cgi

Thanks for the info

Anyone know if there's any plans for the future of allowing this? Since I use PHP-Nuke, I thought it would be nice (once I get the speed) to maybe run some 'Nuke-lets' and dyndns.org only allows 5 free addresses.

This could potentially be a major security vulnerability, as the PHP scripts can read any file that's visible to the www user.  Through a PHP script, the user could view scripts that they don't have permission for.

Why not install Nuke in ibays and create virtual domains.

I thought of that (and that's currently what I'm doing) but I use dyndns.org and they only allow 5 free addresses.

I guess I COULD use some of the other services but I've just used dyndns.org for a long time now.
