Well, Gossi,

I agree with your standpoint. Some "project leaders"
easily turn into "project defenders" when one takes
a closer look at their project. .o)


So the advice for any server with "Invision Board" installed 
is to disable phpinfo() in the php startup file in addition
to setting safe-mode = On and perhaps specifying a special 
safe_mode_exec_dir.


- -- see /etc/php.ini --

; This directive allows you to disable certain functions for security reasons.
; It receives a comma-deliminated list of function names.  This directive is
; *NOT* affected by whether Safe Mode is turned On or Off.
disable_functions = phpinfo
