Default permissions

[tansu]

Hi,
My users are complaining about the folder permisions.
When I create an account for a user, I mean with the defaults they have to adjust their own permissions.
For example, when they want to install Wordpress, they have to create and chmod .htaccess file with their own. Or when they like to edit their themes from WP panel, they have to chmod theme files 777.
They say they didnt have to to that in other hosts.
How can I give their webscripts permissions to create, edit folders and files..
Regards

Thanks,
installing custombuild, will it destroy my exisiting setup. Is it safe to install?

 

[smtalk]

DirectAdmin setup? No, it won't It will just replace your Apache configuration files, that's it.

Thanks
I installed it without any pain.
But I am not sure that I know what I am doing.. What should I do now to Install PHP as CGI/FastCGI?
Or it is done, is t supposed to work now?

Set php5_cgi=yes and php_5cli=no in the options.conf file, then run:

./build php n

Good luck!
