Hello to all,

I have a question about what software is best for a good web hosting
server on freeBSD, for one site hosting and for multiple site. The
server I like to be secure.

Programs I think is best for a web hosting are:

- Apache 2
- MySQL 5
- PHP 5
- awstat
- ftp server ... I don't really know what to install, proftpd it's good ?
- iptables -- for firewall

There are of course, lots of options, but as for your firewall, AFAIK
you can't use iptables. It's a Linux thing. Look into pf (my favorite)
ipf and ipfw. they are the main choices for firewalls on FreeBSD.



If anybody have experience and have a suggestions or a simple
documentation only for this I like to share it.

PS: I work in most of my time with gentoo, I'm new in the freeBSD world.

Thank you very much and have a nice day !
