It is also possible to use filesystem ACLs that allow unrelated users to write to the wiki's files (sharing the group assigned to files is the "low tech" equivalent when you don't have ACLs). For example: setfacl -m u:youruser:rw somefile setfacl -m u:youruser:rwx somedir (You can combine this with find to do this to many files, and I generate a script to do this in moinsetup.) However, if files are created by Moin, it can be tricky to get the ACLs to stick to these new files, although I'm sure that if I checked the documentation I'd find a reasonable solution for that, too. If anyone has any better ideas, please let us know. ;-) Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
