[mapserver-users] MS4W 2.3 / Apache security question using deflate

[Mark Volz]

Hello,

 

When I upgraded to MS4W, I noticed the deflate (compression) module was not
working.  I added the following lines in http.conf, and I was just wondering
if it was a security concern or not.

 

 

####NEW LINES###

<Location />

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

</Location>

###EXISTING CODE#####

<Location "/cgi-bin">

    Options None

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Location>

<Location "/fcgi-bin">

    # The following line activates the fastCGI script to all files in
location

    SetHandler fcgid-script

    Options None

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Location>

<Directory "C:/ms4w/tmp/">

    AllowOverride None

    Options None

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Directory>
