Alright, so I'm taking over the administration of two servers from a member of our team who graduated. They're currently running Debian, but since I'm going for a fresh start on one of them, I'm planning to use FreeBSD this time around (if things go as planned).
This machine will be used as a webserver, among other things. I was wondering how many BSD users here chroot their Apache/PHP/MySQL installations for security purposes. Have you run into any troubles after doing so? How about maintenance - do you need to go through the same process again after a portupgrade, or does everything just go in its correct place?
Would appreciate any input on this topic, along with any other general suggestions and recommendations that you might have. Thanks.
