Hi All,
I'd like to install MySQL and PHP onto my server that's hosted in a POP on
the internet. No i have no firewall on tha machine, but i only have the
SSH, FTP (chrooted, no real users) and APACHE services running. I trust
these services (rightly or wrongly).
Now MySQL has been around for ages and i was wondering if it is secure
enough to run on an open server? I understand that you can limit access to
users at specific IP addresses, but is this service still vunerable to
attack?
I'd greatly appreciate your views.
Neil
