newtech Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 One suggestion to make oscommerce more secure is to add the following in the htaccess file. Can someone tell me what this script does? Anybody know if I can also put it in my phpforum htaccess file to help make the forum site more secure? <Files site> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Files>
Guest Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Rich, If you google that command statement, you will notice that it is generally used for 'friendly' URL's and not as a security enhancement. It also says the command is not generally supported by Apache hosts. There is tons of info about the command but from what I can see, it is not a security enhancement for .htaccess Chris
newtech Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 Your answer was the exact conclusion I came up with when I did a Google. Yet, it was listed with other htaccess commands as a security feature when I read an oscommerce article.
