Re: OT?:Proper owner of html files in Apache

What I'm trying to find out is if root.root is a good idea? I assume it is or it wouldn't be the default. It just seems odd to me to have to become root in order to write either a html or cgi page. Nathan E Norman wrote: > > On Tue, Jul 24, 2001 at 02:56:34PM -0400, Ken Januski wrote: > > Steve
