2005-02-06: Security update

IMPORTANT! The server cleanup started tonight, admittedly to make it cleaner, more secure and better suited for hosting websites. As such, changes were made to home directories: every user is now part of the users group. Check your scripts and permissions. By default home folders will have the following permissions: rwx --- --x. Unless you don’t have a website hosted, it’s strongly recommanded you keep those permissions.

Moreover, PHP configuration was updated and fixed. The option register_globals is now disabled. Check and correct your scripts accordingly. Check here for help and details. safe_mode was also enabled. Report any problem to security@leapingtiger.org.

2005-01-28: Is this thing on?

Server is up and running. The actual website has just been put online for real. Still beta-testing links and adding content here and there.

“Now, we’ve basically got it all worked out, except for small stuff, big stuff, hot stuff, cold stuff, fast stuff, heavy stuff, dark stuff, turbulence, and the concept of time.”
