Security and file permissions on AFS fileservers
#2
Never tried installing it on an AFS fileserver. GetSimple will need to have access to those folders and files if you want it to store data, some plugins might even need write access to the plugin directory.

I don’t know how ACL works, but you can try giving only the “owner” write access and make sure that the server owns the files and directories. This way only the PHP service running on your server (the one powering GetSimple) has write access to the files it creates and nobody from the outside has it.

If you don’t want any writeable folders or files your safest bet for a CMS would be a MySQL based one.
“Don’t forget the important ˚ (not °) on the a,” says the Unicode lover.
Help us test a key change for the core! ¶ Problems with GetSimple? Be sure to enable debug mode!
