This is what apache conf told me: ------- # The path to the end user account 'public_html' directory must be # accessible to the webserver userid. This usually means that ~userid # must have permissions of 711, ~userid/public_html must have permissions # of 755, and documents contained therein must be world-readable. # Otherwise, the client will only receive a "403 Forbidden" message. -----
the 'adduser' will give uid 700 for the default home folder. I can't access the public_html folder until I do chmod 711 to the home folder. And yes, it give me error "403 Forbidden" message if I dont change the uid of the user home's folder. I did create public_html folder in /etc/skel and I set the uid to 755 as the apache's request.... :) Anyway, hoe about the security isssues? Is this a safe method to let user home's folder with uid 711? Phillip.
