I have came across this problem many times (and it is one of the few things I dislike about packaged systems). Anyways, I have fixed this problem two different ways: - fetch the original Apache source for the same version of Apache; configure suexec to your liking and then build it with suxec support; then simply copy just the suexec binary and chmod it to be setuid. (No need to install everything.) - easier still is to actually edit the binary suexec file itself; I have done this successfully a few times on different servers (different OSs) by using sed; change the "/var/www" to "/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@^@". The sed expression I used last time was: s/\/home\/httpd\/html/\/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@^@/ (where ^@ is ASCII 0, null). Hope these ideas help. (Maybe there is now an easier Debian way?) Jeremy C.
