We're just having a discussion. I'm very familiar with how suid/sgid works, and have in fact done that for now. I appreciate that you take the issue so personally; it tells me you're sincerely interested in helping. There was still a problem with ssh due to ownership of the ssh user separate from apache which had to be changed afterwards. The reason I was exploring other possibilities is because generally speaking the apache user shouldn't have write privileges in the document root. If there was ever an apache compromise leading to a shell, it would put in jeopardy the entire website. I'd like to avoid that. I'm disappointed there isn't more explicit information on directory permissions in the joomla documentation. I believe the reason for that is because they recommend the mod_suphp module for managing permissions.
