1. How is this specific to Unix and/or home directories? It seems more
It isn't, except that some other setups don't have an obvious
place equivalent to a home directory.
about keeping private data in the web server space.
2. Why not keep most of your private data in a database? That is not
within the web server space but can be accessed as needed.
Because one of the most important pieces of private data is the
password to the database, which obviously can't be kept in
the database.
3. If you need to store private data within the web server space, why
not encrypt it first?
So where do you keep the key to it?
