I’ve been working my way through the different solutions available for securing a shared hosting server. So far, I’ve looked at:
The solutions that are left on my todo list are:
- Telana’s mpm-peruser
- Steinar H. Gunderson’s mpm-itk
- Virtualisation using Xen / VMware et al
Are there any other solutions for securing shared hosting that you know about, and would like me to include? If there are, let me know by leaving a comment below.

Litespeed Webserver with Litespeed PHP SAPI
and built in suexec support.
apache mod_fcgid with suexec
or you can use many striped down apache instances behind a reverse proxy.

if you go the virtualization route i would not choose vmware or xen for a webhosting enviroment.
openvz/virtuozzo/vserver (os virtualization)is a better choice, because you can but more servers on a physical box.

What about using FastCGI, but a separate spawner (spawn it yourself) as whatever user you want? Then you can spawn a dozen or so dispatchers, and point apache to the right one via v-hosts…

You might want to have a look at http://www.lighttpd.net/ (with fcgi & php)
