Re: unlink() & rmdir() ... Problems.

Ave, Apache to the best of my knowledge runs as "nobody" by default and since I didn't change any settings, it is probably running as "nobody". This is what I got with ls -al rahul:/Library/WebServer/Documents/informed-sources.com/imsafm bob$ ls -al total 16 drwxrwxrwx 5 nobody nobody 170 24 Aug 13:55 . drwxrwxrwx 102 bob unknown 3468 24 Aug 11:23 .. -rw-rw-rw- 1 bob unknown 6148 24 Aug 13:57 .DS_Store drwxr-xr-x 3 www www 102 24 Aug 11:05 bobkasper drwxr-xr-x 3 www www 102 24 Aug 11:09 rjohari Now you see the last 2 folders... "bobkasper" and "rjohari". These are 2 users created by the admin. If I delete a user, their corresponding folder should be deleted as well, which is what I am trying to achieve. But if, let's say, I delete the user "rjohari"... The folder still remains. Thanks for helping...
