We have a couple of developers asking for 'allow_url_fopen' to be enabled on our server. What's the norm these days and if libcurl is enabled is there really any good reason to allow?
Environment is: Windows 2003, PHP 5.2.6, FastCGI
Thanks Kev

You definitely want allow_url_include set to Off, which mitigates many of the risks of allow_url_fopen as well.

I'd like to allow certain users to su to another user account without having to know that account's password, but not allow access to any other user account (i.e. root).
For instance, I'd like to allow Tom the DBA to su to the oracle user, but not to ...

Yes, this is possible.
I believe su will only not ask for the password if UID = 0 .
I think using ssh to localhost using key only authentication is the simplest way .

For the following code I get a compile time error, *
'int' is not a reference type as required by the lock statement
int i = 0; lock(i);
But no errors for this:
int i = 0; Monitor.Enter(i);
I understand that a value type shouldn't be used for locking ...

Monitor.Enter is simply a method call and the C# compiler does not special case the call in any way and hence it goes through normal ... .
The reason why is that lock is a language construct and compiler chooses to impose extra semantics on the expression .

This code does...

Depending on who you ask it's even considered good practice that (if possible) your authoritative server not be recursive as it's a line of defence against some DoS attacks .
No you don't need to have recursion on for authoritative DNS servers .
