<DIV>This is somewhere between a development challenge and a server
config challenge, so I hope someone can help.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We've got our own set of tools which are accessed from any domain using <A
href="http://www.example.com/sitetools">www.example.com/sitetools</A> -
they're mostly written in Perl so an alias for sitetools pointing to the real
location works fine when the permissions are set with chmod 6755 for the
directory and contents.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now, however, I'd like to get this working for a PHP upload script and keep
facing permission issues. I don't think suPHP helps here as it needs to be
a server-wide script. The upload works fine from within the local web
space.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>BTW, security is handled by .htaccess so unauthorised access is not part of
the problem - getting the PHP code to execute is the problem.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hopefully this makes some sense and any ideas would be appreciated.
Maybe this has been seen before in a different guise, but I can see it in the BX
archives.</DIV>

<DIV>Thanks, Richard</DIV></BODY></HTML>
