Hey Lenny, hate when that happens :) You can't chmod from PHP because of safe mode. When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories you are about to operate on have the same UID (owner) as the script that is being executed. In addition, you cannot set the SUID, SGID and sticky bits. I think there is an apache configuration setting because my own server does not have this problem but I can't remember what I configured to get this to work ..... it is almost 1:00 in the morning where I am, I will try to find the setting for you tomorrow (later today) if you have not found a solution. The URL below may help.... http://php.net/chmod
