phpSecureSite 0.0.3 is released. You can get it from SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsecuresite/ This release doesn't have many major changes to the system, instead the focus has been on extending the features already present in the system. Here is a list of some of the changes : - Improved the phpss_auth() and phpss_login() interfaces (returns various error codes) - Added a logging subsystem - Implemented a handful of events for logging and in preparation for the upcoming module subsystem - You can now set the database server port for connections - Removed the demo site - Documentation improvements As always, read the full documentation. And remember that the system is not ready for production use at all, so if you use it for anything serious you are on your own. |

phpSecureSite is now available through SourceForge CVS. This allows several developers to easily collaborate on the project, and users can download bleeding-edge development snapshots. The CVS repository has been split up into four separate projects. These are : database SQL database structures demo Demo site docs Documentation phpss The phpSecureSite system For more info on accessing the CVS repository go to the project home page at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/phpsecuresite For more info on CVS in general you should take a look at the book "Open Source Development with CVS" by Karl Fogel. It is available online at http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/ --=20 Erik Grinaker Freelance UNIX/Linux systems consultant "Perfection is acheived not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away" - Antoine de Saint-Exup=E9ry |

phpSecureSite version 0.0.2 is finally out. After a small "mishap" with the development server two months of work was lost, which is the reason for the five month delay since version 0.0.1. Development will probably be a bit more fast-paced now, with new releases once a month or so. To download it go to the project homepage at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/phpsecuresite --=20 Erik Grinaker Freelance UNIX/Linux systems consultant "Perfection is acheived not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away" - Antoine de Saint-Exup=E9ry |

I have managed to delete the whole phpSecureSite development tree, and the latest backup is a month old. This means that the new release will be postponed a month or two while I reimplement the lost code. 0.1 may be out around May 1. 2002. @#$&%!!! Here's a list of some new features for you to drool over until the new version is out ; - Fully modularized system, based on events and handlers. This allows third-party developers to write their own plug-in modules - Whole system rewritten into the new module system. Modules include - Core system (minimal session handling) - Logging subsystem - Session variables (also persistent (intersession) vars) - IP access control - Brute force protection - Extensive documentation in DocBook SGML, rendered to HTML, PDF, PostScript or pretty much any other format - New demo site which demonstrates all the phpSecureSite functionality - Complete abstraction of the database Although there is still a long way to go before it is ready for real-world use it has grown considerably since version 0.0.1, and my ambitions for the system is constantly increasing. I think that within a year it will be a highly secure and functional security system for web-apps which should be ready for use in environments where security is a top priority, for example online banking-services or ecommerce-sites. The first thing I'll do when I begin development again is to set up a good backup-system so I'll never have to go through this again. --=20 Erik Grinaker Freelance UNIX/Linux systems consultant "Perfection is acheived not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away" - Antoine de Saint-Exup=E9ry |
