Hi list Last week i ran into the very restrictive folder permissions of the apache2 log dir. They where "drwxr-x--- root adm" but I changed them to "rwxr-xr-x root adm" so a unprivileged user may opdate webalizer[1] at night.
That got me thinking (which I generally don't like...), does anyone know why the permissions are so strict, and is there a risk in the change I've made beside that everybody now may read the logs? The answer seems to elude me. Thanks, tit [1] Some sort of weblog presentaion program, http://www.webalizer.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
