- | [02] WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT DNS RECORD TYPES? | + | [02] IS PHP4, ASP, PERL, SSI, CGI AVAILABLE HERE? |
+ | |||
+ | YES! | ||
- | This is a pretty quick and basic description. | + | This is probably FAQ #1 and its annoying as hell to have to |
- | important records are the A, MX and CNAME. | + | answer it over and over and over and over and over again. |
- | figure out how the DNS database entry works. | + | |
+ | We use suEXEC and suPHP! | ||
+ | you have access to under your SDF membership are the tools | ||
+ | you can use in your website scripting. | ||
- | SOA Start Of Authority. | + | To make use of SSI, be sure to use .shtml as your filename |
- | portion | + | extension. |
- | care of this record for you. | + | |
- | A Address record. | + | Need to see php4 options? |

- | MX host to specify preference (typically 75 for | + | How about CGI? |
- | a primary, and 100 for a secondary) | + | |
+ | If you know how to ask the question, you better know how to | ||
+ | make use of the facilities. | ||
+ | | ||
+ | may show up here. For instance: | ||
- | CNAME Canonical Name - an equivilent host name. | + | If you want to create a simple CGI, you don't need to use |
+ | PERL, you can do it the UNIX way in ksh! (PS, PERL != CGI) | ||
- | A typical database (without the SOA) might look like this: | + | # |
+ | # | ||
+ | # My silly.cgi | ||
+ | # | ||
+ | echo Content-type: text/html | ||
+ | | ||
+ | echo "" | ||
+ | echo " | ||
+ | my silly hello world. | ||
+ | " | ||
- | $ORIGIN mydomain.org. | + | To create powerful CGIs using LISP, you can use OpenLISP on |
+ | SDF by simply: | ||
- | foo IN A 10.0.0.1 | + | # |
- | IN MX 75 | + | ; |
- | IN MX 100 | + | ; My powerful.cgi |
- | bar IN CNAME foo.mydomain.org. | + | ; |
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | my powerful hello world. | ||
+ | ") | ||
- | Notice that the " | + | For more information and a tutorial on using LISP on SDF |
