php.ini for customers?

[xeryph]

Hi,
I have an idea to give my customers access to edit their own php.ini. They can edit php.ini, disable/enable some functions, set register globals, safe mod etc. Is it passible to give all customers own php.ini file?

What do you thin about it? I think that it would be great - customers have got big control on php

Thanks.

Are you mad?

Customers should have as less control as possible. Especially if you're talking about enabling or disabling features in PHP.

I agree with the 'are you mad' statement.

If your customers want to have *some* control, they can do a quite a bit via the .htaccess file.

Two ways to do it, run php as an cgi (be sure to use something like suexec with it), or as a fastcgi launched as that user. I do something like this so they can pick to run php 5 or php 4 also.


You can not do it with mod_php.

As for madness, as long as your control who they can run php as, why would it be mad?
