Then in that case, the error you've reported implies that the problem
was not the permissions on the tmda-cgi-0.10 directory, but the
permissions on one of its parents.  If the given user cannot read
/root or /root/APPS then they can't read /root/APPS/tmda-cgi-0.10.

Try:

# chmod a+x /root
# chmod a+x /root/APPS
# chmod a+x /root/APPS/tmda-cgi-0.10

That should work.  It doesn't really matter who owns the files since
we made sure that any user can read them.  However, for safety sake,
you might want to chown the files to a different user to prevent user
nobody from making changes to them.

Yup.

Go for it.  I don't think it can hurt, although the error you listed
earlier did not indicate that was a problem.  If TMDA is working, then
those files must already be readible.
