I'm coming from using XAMP on windows and I'm wondering with MAMP Pro (my goal is to create virtual hosts on the local box)
1) When you change apache to add the virtual hosts, are you changing the MAMP Pro apache, or are you changing the OS X apache? And is there any negative security implication to doing this? I switched to mac to avoid having to be insanely paranoid about security (now just regularly paranoid) and I don't want to open up the system to attack.
2) It seems you can only run MAMP Pro as an admin. Again coming from windows, on my MPB I have an admin account that I really don't use, and then I have a standard user account that I live in everyday. Is there a security issue with me running everyday in an admin account?
Thanks.
