Hey Dave

Thanks for your reply. I'm not entire sure if this solution can be 
easily applied to my setup, however I have learned that my httpd.conf 
file does have the setting already there for each user. The trouble is, 
these settings are in a virtualhost  block for each user, and suPHP does 
not appear to be picking them up - it only seems to go for a global 
setting if one exists, and none other if it doesn't. I'm wondering if 
there's anything I can do to make suPHP pick up the 'suPHP_UserGroup' 
setting inside a VirtualHost in an apache config file?

Cheers,
Max
