How might I make an 'includes' dir inside the http root and stop users being able to browse it?
chmod go-rwx dirname But this will probably stop the web server from reading the file. Perhaps the administrators can provide a script (SUID) that allows a user to change the group association of the file to that of the web server? Yet without making the user a part of the group itself, otherwise all users would be able to see all of these files... Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
