    Is this possible?

    I know we can enable/disable CGI (perl), but is there a way to totally disable a domain from running ANY server-side scripts?

    ie: They should be able to run ONLY .html and not:

    .php
    .shtml
    .asp
    .cgi
    .pl
    ..or whatever else..

    Thanks!

    Your httpd.conf specifies how to handle certain file types.

    Based on this, I suppose it's possible to override such directives in local .htaccess files.

    If this is possible, you'd then have to overcome the problem of users modifying such .htaccess files. They'd need to be readable by Apache and then, by association, by everyone else, however they wouldn't need to be writable by anyone - would permissions of 0444 work?

    Can this be done programmatically when creating the account?

    ie: I want to set up a basic WHM plan that does NOT allow php/cgi

    Any ideas?

    Go on, have a guess
    It's certainly possible. You'd have to do some coding using the /scripts/postwwwacct script which you would have to create and code yourself.
