So I'm looking into enabling uploading for mediawiki, which isn't on by default, but I'm concerned with making it as secure as the site says. Has anybody done this successfully with a shared hosting account that's willing to give some advice?

I recently asked about this subject here.

DreamHost said they set the correct permissions for security.

I didn't have to do anything special to enable uploads except uncomment the $wgDisableUploads line in LocalSettings.php.

Thanks so much! That certainly makes things easy. And now I feel silly... I completely missed that thread when I searched the forums.
