LOL. I was just trying to demonstrate how pointless it is trying to
define what is off-topic. Anyway, the FAQ says pretty much anything
web-related is on topic.

That still excludes the post that started this thread, of course.

/donning flame retardent suit ...

Web servers are off-topic, not web related?

See your earlier point was well made and not lost on me at least.

No flames here.

The OP, as I read it, was aimed at anyone running Linux on their own
machine, at home or at work, rather than those who have their site hosted
on a Linux machine.

But I guess it could be read that way.

It might have been on topic if this was comp.os.linux, but it's not on
topic in alt.html.
Even browser security flaws are verging on off-topic.

And you are welcome to disagree, I personally thing that OS and browser
security are quite on topic here.

Oh, so the fact that the OS is used for a good number of web servers
keeps it off topic.

I posted it here because people use it as a web server.
