Apache does a good job itself of keeping it's files and directories safe, if you don't plan on making any changes (and you shouldn't, or even need to), so removing msec is an option. Personally, though, I would try to go the route of editing/creating the perm.local file, for two reasons; learning how to deal with msec, *and* keeping your machine as secure as possible until you truly understand how to deal with things like permissions (chroot, etc.). > Don't have a perm.local. You can create one. MSEC will then look at that and override it's usual "activities" with what it sees there. -- HaywireMac ++ ICQ # 279518458 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >From the cradle to the coffin underwear comes first. -- Bertolt Brecht
