Our last poll asked readers of this blog the question:
Which Webserver do you use?
Thanks to everyone, total 435 people responded to the poll. Results are as follows:
- 66% users are using Apache v2.2.x web server
- 11% uses are using Apache v1.3x web server
- 8% users are using Microsoft IIS v5/6 web server
- 6% users are using lighttpd web server
I guess apache rules when it comes to Web server.
New poll: How do you keep remote users out in emergency?
Last week I had some problem with 3 servers. Since I was patching system and backing up stuff I wanted to keep my remote user out for at least for 60-90 minutes. As usual I dropped the remote connections using /etc/nologin and turning off both ftpd/sshd.
Now I am wondering -- how you guys keep remote users out in emergency? Let me know if you are using some other nifty technique.
You should follow me on twitter here or grab rss feed to keep track of new changes.
