Is it legal to publish information about the server on a shared hosting webspace?
<p>I have a shared hosting webspace on a linux server.
I am showing the uptime of the server on my website, because it's interesting to see...</p>

<p>I am now questioning if it's is legal to publish any information about the server to the public?</p>

<p>For example:</p>

<ul>
<li>the files on the server</li>
<li>hardware information (cpu temperature, free disk space, ...)</li>
<li>software running on it (displaying version information could be a security risk)</li>
<li>other users on the server</li>
<li>content of configuration files</li>
</ul>

<p>While this might be unwise, I can see no reason why it would be illegal unless your server is, for example, a part of the national security IT infrastructure, or belongs to a law firm, or some other entity that owes the highest degree of confidentiality.</p>
