i have to install a server that will host a "test drive" of a web app on the 
internet. from my inital look at the app, it looks like it will be a target 
to be exploited. i am not involved with the code so fixing it is not an 
option. what i would like to try and do is host it in a manner where i can 
minimize the risk and damage. it will only have sample data and it doesnt 
have to be "live". some ideas i have-

automate disk imaging or rsync.
read only filesystem.
integrity tool.
live cd version of the app.

any other ideas?????

its using apache/php/mysql and i have explained that it might not be fully 
functional or might have to be offline for a small amount of time each day. 
i have only just switched to freebsd so if any one has any links to some 
docs or tools that would be helpful. thankyou.
Mike
