A souped-up version of the Apache printenv script for hard-core server environment debuggery.

#!/bin/sh
echo -e "Content-type: text/plainnn"
...
  __T "CURRENT PROCESS CMDLINE"
  {
   for p in `echo /proc/[0-9]*/cmdline`;
   do
    pid=${p:6:$((${#p}-13))}
    [[ $pid == $PPID || $pid == $$ ]] && continue;
    __M "[ /proc/$pid ]";
    sed 's/x00/ /g;G' $p 2>/dev/null
   done
  }

Here is even more information from the Ultimate Htaccess Part I. For now this is very rough and you will want to come back later to read it.

If you have a php.cgi or php.ini file in your /cgi-bin/ directory or other pub directory, try requesting them from your web browser. If your php.ini shows up or worse you are able to execute your php cgi, you'll need to secure it ASAP. This shows several ways to secure these files, and other interpreters like perl, fastCGI, bash, csh, etc.

Learn how to setup, configure, secure, optimize, and create a low-maintenance website the AskApache way. I'm piecing together all the hacks, tricks, methods, and ideas discussed throughout this blog and all across Netdom and glueing them all together to show you how to have the most optimized, crazy fastest, and best website setup I can think of.

Web Developers sometimes use file.ext?v=004 as a version control system to force visitors to use updated files. This is terrible. Instead link to apache-003.css and set it to be cached forever. When you change the file you just change the links to apache-004.css. That eliminates millions of bandwidth and resource robbing If-Modified-Since requests. You only need Apache with mod_rewrite, and 1-10 minutes!

So my blog as been rather quiet for almost a year now, and very few updates if any have been released for my Password Protection PLugin, my Google 404 Plugin, and definately not for my AskApache CrazyCache plugin, which I will be releasing last... So for all of you who've helped me out by sending me suggestions and notifying me of errors and sticking with it... Just wanted to say sorry about that, and thanks for all the great ideas.. Well, I've been sticking with it as well believe it our not. I manage to get free days once in a while, and then its time to jam.
