Even if you have to recompile, it's fairly painless: cd /usr/src apt-get source apache cd apache-1.3.26/ vi debian/rules (set --suexec-docroot=/where/you/want) fakeroot debian/rules binary > Anyhow, so anyone know if there's a way to make apache debs run > su-exec? thanks. The debs already have suexec, but the suexec-docroot is set to /var/www or something like that. If that's not what you want, you'll have to recompile. Just make sure you save a backup copy of /usr/lib/apache/suexec so you can fix it when the next minor release comes out and 'apt-get upgrade' overwrites your custom suexec binary. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
