Hey all... I am just wondering what everyone thinks about how to properly
set permissions so that a shared hosting user can use PHP to do things, like
create text files, in their own directory?
I know the directory that is to be written in has to have write privledges,
but turning that on for everyone seems like a bit of a security risk, does
it not?
We are currently battling to find the best case scenario....
Anyway, any best practices here would be appreciated!
Bill
