NO - DONT EVER DO THIS!!!! tmp/session files should not be stored in a directory that

.htaccess directives can be used to block access to the dir BUT I still would recommend
keeping 'tmp' outside of the web root.

just make sure 'tmp' is writable by the user the webserver is running as.

Hi All,

thanx. How do I determine what user httpd is running as? Cheers.

I should say check your httpd.conf file for "User" and "Group" - they are capitalized.

Alternatively:

ps aux | grep httpd
or
ps aux | grep apache

the first column is the user it's running as.

or lastly, probably the quickest way, create a phpinfo page and look for

User/Group
