Hi,

Has anyone used the frontpage extension? If so, what is your opinion on its security?

I worked for a company that had it installed on a helluvalot[0] of clients sites and I don't remember any security related incidents because of having them in the three years I spent with the company. I wasn't involved in maintaining them though so can't really give any more advice.

Is it a good thinks to install on server?

Well, Having been in tech support and having had to deal with people trying to use FP, I would say it that FP and FP extensions were hell spawn of the devil, but that is just my personal opinion ;-)

Where can I find information about it?

If I was thinking of installing them, I would start here:

http://www.google.com/search?q=frontpage+extensions+unix

But I am not ;-)
