Book Review: php|architect’s Guide to PHP Security
Peter Lavin
Security is a constant concern; at every turn it seems another flaw is discovered in this or that application or operating system. Because PHP is being more widely used, it was no surprise that security was a hot topic at the recent php|works conference (organized by php|architect). I missed hearing Ilia Alshanetsky, the author of this book, speak on security at the conference (there was something equally attractive in the same time slot), but I was impressed by his talks on Web services and PHP performance.

The Open Road: Ethereal
Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier
This month, I'm going to wrap up discussion of network troubleshooting tools. So far, I've covered netstat, tcpdump, and ngrep and sniff. This month, I'll discuss Ethereal, a tool for browing network traffic interactively and analyzing network traffic. To put it more emphatically, Ethereal is the all-singing, all-dancing, packet-inspecting tool that all admins should have in their software toolboxes.

Apache Logs
Russell Dyer
The Apache Web server is set up to log information on user activities and errors. By default, all non-error messages are recorded in one log file and all error messages in another. The level of messages may be increased or decreased, the content of the messages may be set, and the messages may be split into multiple log files. This last option is especially useful for a server that handles multiple domains. In this article, I will explore Apache logging and how it can be configured.
