open_basedir string

Limit the files that can be opened by PHP to the specified directory-tree.

When a script tries to open a file with, for example, fopen or gzopen, the
location of the file is checked. When the file is outside the specified
directory-tree, PHP will refuse to open it. All symbolic links are resolved,
so it's not possible to avoid this restriction with a symlink.

The special value . indicates that the directory in which the script is
stored will be used as base-directory.

Under Windows, separate the directories with a semicolon. On all other
systems, separate the directories with a colon. As an Apache module,
open_basedir paths from parent directories are now automatically inherited.

  Note: Support for multiple directories was added in 3.0.7.

The default is to allow all files to be opened.

That was taken from the manual: Chapter 3 [configuration file]
