Hello all. I just have a quick question. I am writing a small guestbook

under its own user. So where am I to put the dbm files at? Shall I create a
folder in my home directory and grant write permissions to the apache user
on it? Thanks.

Make a sub-directory in cgi-bin  called  dbhome,
and chmod it 777.  If you could somehow initialize
the db yourself, you could improve security by
making  dbhome 755 and just have the db files mode 777.
