A directory permissions question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm on virtual-host server and have been following a rule of making certain all directories on the root have permissions set to 755. This is the default when creating new directories with ftp, etc.

Occasionally, I need directories with 757 and have always made certain they were not on the root.

I've started thinking about whether my rule really makes any sense for security reasons.

In general, the site is well protected by the host's security measures and my use of the Apache basic authorization where needed, etc.

Comments and suggestions???

Thanks.....
