Secure apache with php

Hi,

I'm currently using mpm-itk (on debian, but should be replaced with
freebsd soon ;-)).

I'm quite happy with the solution as it's easy to setup many user
accounts for web without ugly access right stuff and all that. apache
never made a problem after setup :-)

unfortunately I've never had the time to do futher hardening for mpm-itk
in special (only 'standard' apache/php hardening is applied). but as I'm
planning to keep this setup and extend userbase after move to freebsd
I'm curious what your results will be.

Regards,

Mr. Olli
