I started learning web design to support my efforts as a singer/songwriter. I'm still doing that, but these days my actual job involves building intranet resources as well. My skillset is PHP, HTML, CSS, and Javascript (I'm a big fan of jQuery).

Why do I need to purchase an SSL certificate when I can generate one locally? @tristan - it's an imperfect system, but cert authorities have some incentive to be trustworthy. Eg if they gave a random person a Google cert, they'd be removed from all browsers in short order. They also offer "extended validation" certs which, in theory, mean they do more checking. Any of them could decide that this requires in-person DNA tests if they thought it would bolster their reputation and earn them business. |

Why shouldn't you let developers near root passwords? As a developer, I appreciate the collaborative relationship you imply. Unfortunately, often the developer and sysadmin are the same person, so the idea of being "cut off" may irritate some developers. I'd say that if you have dedicated sysadmins, giving up root access in exchange for not having to do both things is a nice deal. |

How can I see which flags Nginx was compiled with? Another way of saying this is "how can I see which flags Nginx was compiled with?" Just wanted to add that to increase searchability. |

zsh colored files directories I assume your answer is correct for Ubuntu, but since I landed on this question via a Google search and I'm using OSX: the exact flag may vary. For me, it was ls -G. Try man ls then search with /color to find what it is for any given OS. |

Our security auditor is an idiot. How do I give him the information he wants? Of all the ludicrous parts of his request, giving your private SSH key is the worst. That's like "please give me the ability to sign your name and fake your fingerprints." He is either crazy, hacking you, or a moron. Giving that up would be worse for you than getting fired for not doing it; at least you won't be in the news when the company goes down in flames. |

Correct PHP5 DLL for Apache 2.2? @iamjonesy - No, I extracted all the PHP files into C:\php so that I could keep them together. This is cleaner, and let me do interesting stuff; for example, when I wanted to try a newer version of PHP, I renamed C:\php to c:\php_old_version (or whatever) and put the new one in C:\php. Note: to make this work, you have to add C:\php to your path in Windows, so that when Apache says "run php.exe!," Windows can say, "let's see, that's not in C:\... ah, here it is, it's in C:\php." See sleeplessgeek.blogspot.com/2010/01/… for the whole process. |

Apache: security difference between folder in web root and alias? I have not yet learned mod_rewrite. I gather that it could be #3 on this list, but is considerably more complex. |

Cheapest way to get a Cisco firewall with a Sprint data connection? In either case - whether you get the HWIC or the 881G - you get a serial number that can be registered with the carrier? Does the device then have to be programmed ("this is your new phone number")? |

Consequences of a subnet mask? "All the computers you want to be able to use the router would have to have the same netmask" Interesting. But they will be given the netmask by DHCP, right? |
