I have a Debian 3.1 server on which I am currently running Apache 2.0.54 (packaged by Debian) and PHP 5.0.3 (compiled from source). I have used a couple of web applications (CMS software packages) that allow me to upload files to a specified directory. That directory has setgid permissions on it, so that all files created inside it are grouped to staff, allowing anyone in that group to manipulate the files from the command line if need be. I have found that in every instance, Apache ignores the setgid bit. All files created by the web server are owned by www-data (the default user for Apache on Debian), and grouped to www-data as well, despite the fact that the directory is grouped to staff. Is this behavior intentional? Can it be changed? If so, how? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
