Usually the PHP scripts are run under the same user apache runs as, so they have the same permissions. You can limit files which can a PHP script access by using PHP directives open_basedir and doc_root. You can run peruses MPM wich apathe 2.2. You can also run PHP as CGI using suexec, but that's a bit ineffective. I don't know how does FastCGI work. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
