Re: Scripts run as a specific user.

The apache suExec directive will execute all CGI processes as the user you specify with the "User" directive. This is not working. Doed PHP count as CGI resources? in my httpd.conf file I have the following. <VirtualHost 208.155.248.53:80> User americalist Options FollowSymLinks Indexes ExecCGI DocumentRoot /u/www/<DOMAIN>/www ErrorDocument 404 /redirect.php ServerName <DOMAIN sorry wont give this out> ErrorLog "|/usr/local/sbin/cronolog /u/www/logs/test.americalist.com/%Y-%merror.log" CustomLog "|/ust/local/sbin/cronolog /u/www/logs/test.americalist.com/%Y-%maccess.log" combined </VirtualHost> any suggestions. ----- Original Message ----- From: Brad Handy <bhandy@jack-of-all-trades.net> To: Timothy A.
