Hi, no you can't really solve this by yourself. What you have to do so that people can create files with their own uid is what i had to do for php4U (php for Lycos Members) which is setting the setuid bit to +s and adding in the php code an effective uid change. The drawbacks of this is that you have to use a cgi version of php. It's not THAT bad actually in terms of performance. We use it for roughly several hundreds thousands users (not all active) with only 6 boxes. I'm not saying they're not loaded but they do fine. I don't think there is another way. If i'm wrong that would be good but I don't really see how it could be done otherwise cause i won't launch php as root :) Later -- Chand Je recompile une version cvs unstable d'un client mail pour avoir les accents dans les sujets.
