Hi, I am moving over to a unix server at a host highly reccomended by my compadres here at WebmasterWorld.

If I understand correctly a good way to protect mt database passwords and php scipts from casual browsers on the same shared server is to run cgi-wrap.

Here is my dumb question. Do I need to also install php in the cgi bin?

Does anyone know of some good step-by-step instructions on how to get this going?

Thanks,

Scott
