To hide php, you could also do this:
header(’X-Powered-By:’, TRUE);

Hi Guys,

I have a problem and it seems I cannot solve it by myself. Please help!!!!

I want to change my php.ini include_path, tried to edit the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini which seems to be the right file. when I change the upload_max_file restart apache and load phpinfo() the change takes place for upload_max_file but not for include_path. The actual value is : .:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear and it would not change at all.

Any ideas why and how I could solve the problem?

Thanks. After doing the above setup, the version details are not shown. But is there any way to hide (or change) the server name (Server: Apache). I want to change the server name also to something else. If that’s possible, pls let us know.

I’m always using “ServerSignature Off” for Apache, but the info about PHP is new for me. Thanx!

You could also use mod_headers to modify the response headers sent.
