Tips on managing a local server
Posted: Wed Sep 01, 2010 8:52 pm
Hi,
I just installed WampServer on my laptop in order to test php applications locally. I'm very new to locally hosting a server (I've only developed on shared servers from godaddy). Does anyone have any tips on what to look out for, as far as security goes? Also, how do I get familiar with Apache? And how do I get familiar with the PHP and MySQL binaries? What are the sort of things involved when it comes to administrating a server? Anything on this particular subject is very much appreciated by me.
Thanks for reading.
