•
Enable SSL The RaQ 4 provides an optional secure sockets layer (SSL) for
Web access. See "SSL settings" on page 118.
•
Enable Active Server Pages (ASP) The RaQ 4 supports ASP scripting
language. For more information, see "Active Server Pages (ASP)" on
page 45.
•
Enable PHP Embedded Scripting The RaQ 4 supports PHP embedded
scripting. For more information, see "PHP embedded scripting" on page 45.
•
Enable Shell Accounts The users of the virtual site being created can telnet
to the RaQ 4 and run commands from a Linux shell. If this feature is
enabled, Site Administrators can grant shell access on a user-by-user basis.
✍
Note: Granting shell access can greatly compromise the security of
your RaQ 4.
•
Enable Secure POP3 (APOP) You can enable the Authentication Post
Office Protocol (APOP) for a virtual site. APOP is a challenge-response
authentication scheme built on top of the standard POP protocol. APOP is
designed in a way that protects your password when being sent across the
network.
✍
Note: If you enable APOP for a user, that user can check his or her
email only through an APOP client; a regular POP3 client will not
work unless APOP is disabled for that user.
•
Enable common gateway interface (CGI) scripts You can enable this
virtual site and all the site users to have CGI-based dynamic Web content on
the RaQ 4. CGI allows a user to have a Web site run programs that
dynamically generate hypertext markup language (HTML) pages in response
to specific user inputs. CGI scripts can be created on a user's desktop
computer and then transferred to the RaQ 4 with a file transfer protocol
(FTP) application. See "Publishing Web pages using FTP" on page 146.
•
Enable Server Side Includes The RaQ 4 can correctly display server-parsed
Web pages (.shtml).
