Gowator Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 You might also want to consider if 775 is suitable for your home dir. I can't tell you, or anyone else. It depends what you keep in there and f you have a fixed IP etc. Better to link a directory from /home/<username> to /var than the other way round if U get some script kiddy targeting you!!!!

paCkeTroUTer Posted October 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 I agree with you. I was running my box in secure mode and the first thing I noticed the next morning was the permissions were re-set to owner rwx. So now I am back to square one. Perhaps I will have to go back to the symlink setup. But I am still curious as to how all the web servers setup their user accounts. Can someone who has done similar job in the commercial world please could quench my curiosity :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
