If there is no write permission for www-data user (which of course should be provided) than there is no reason to be the files in www-data ownership. The one thing you should provide that these files shouldn't be written by www-data user (and the group which it belongs to). And the simplest way to provide it is to change the ownership of the whole directory tree to a user which is not www-data. (e.g with a chown -R ....) Of course there can be other solutions too but they are more complicated. And if you can choose between different solutions the simpler is the better. -- --- Friczy --- 'Death is not a bug, it's a feature' -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
