I've always found it safer to add user accounts to the operating system (under both Linux and Windows NT) for web logins and only give the account permission to the user's directory. Then you can call system functions through that user account and use OS authentication routines to ensure. For example: under Linux the "Super User" (su <name>) command is useful for user authentication. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.filesystem.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+30754 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+30754 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+30754
