You mean chown above, but yes, I've also thought about setting everything sgid.
Someone in another forum recommended mod_suphp
(
http://www.suphp.org/Home.html). It appears to modify how apache
directly writes files. However, I'm not sure that's a good option,
particularly given that the website lacks any indication of there
being any current development.
Anyone have any experience with it?
After a little more research, it appears suEXEC is what's now used
more commonly (
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/suexec.html).
This apparently provides the ability for the ability to run CGI and
SSI programs under user IDs different from the user ID of the calling
web server without having to modify file permissions.
