Hi, I have a question concerning file permissions on the server. When i try to use fopen($file,"w") i am said i am not permitted to do so unless i set the file permissions manualy (FTP) to 666 (cannot use chmod() as well). Well i am asking how big risk it is to leave files with 666 (or dirs with 777) file permissions on the public server when php scripts of other users have open_basedir in effect. Thanks in advance, Petr
