View 14 Replies View RelatedI've just moved from a reseller account with ResellerZoom, so a VPS with SolarVPS.
When I was with RZ all my scripts could write to folder with the 755 permissions. On the vps I have to alter the folder I want the script to write to to be 777.
Which the is best and most secure?
I think I understand that if a folder is 777 then anyone on the server can write to that folder. So I assume some sort of thing that stops users being able to access folders outside of their own folders is needed? is that right?
I have a server running php 5.2.4 with CGI as Server API and suexec, but I cant create dirs in php with chmod 755. When I use mkdir("/home/user/public_html/$dirname", 0755); it creates the dir with chmod 744. Why?
I can change later this chmod to 755 in php with the chmod function. But why my server doesnt allow the directory to be created as 755? Where can I configure it?

I know you're not supposed to use 777 but it seems some scripts just simply won't work without it, what steps needs to be taken to avoid using 777?
as far as i understand we're only supposed to use 775 for folders and 644 for files correct?

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy account has been hacked with every index.php page defaced. I've cleaned up and my shared wehost is pointing at me saying there shouldn't be any 777 permissions for any files in there.
I used 777 to allow php to add records in a txt file and in an xml file.
Is there a better / more secure chmod code I can use?
Those are the only two instances where I need php to write to a file and those files shouldn't be served to anyone, I do not want anyone to be able to access them.
How can I secure them while letting php write in them?
I've recently moved to a new server in which I don't have root, so bare with me.
For some reason when I upload a file with 'move_uploaded_file($tmpName,$new_filename)', it seems to work fine - but when I check it, try to download it (http or ftp), or change the permission - I can't, because its set to 600 for some odd reason, and owned by the user Apache is setup on.
i download a script .. when i unzip the script .. all the folder have chmod to 700 + 600
what command could let the folders and sub folders have chmod to 755 ( as root )
i command this
chmod 755 *
but the folders inside the folder didn't chmod to 755
there is alot folders thats why its hard to do it manually :p
I have my web server hacked several times and I am beating my head against the wall trying to find the problem(s).
Way back when my sites have been defaced and CHMODing my *.html files to 744 seemed to have done the trick
Now someone has put a phishing site somehow, which by the way I'm not able to remove still, I can't help but to think that I may have more CHMODing to do, I have recursevly set my site to 755, shoud this do the trick? I know I need to chmod .htaccess and alike files to 644, but what about...imagesCGI/PHP?cssetc?
What other steps can I take to secure this thing?
it's a shared host, limited access, but I do have SHELL.
I got a VPS with Linode and I have installed CentOS 5.2 32-bit, Apache, MySQL and ProFTPd. The server itself runs very OK, however, I have issues with running 'chmod' on the user interface with either FileZilla or CuteFTP pro.
Whenever I try to chmod 777 on a directory, I got this error on the FTP client interface:
Quote:
Command:SITE CHMOD 777 includes
Response:550 CHMOD 777 includes: No such file or directory
Why no such file or directory? weird. It's just on the server though. The FTP user is the owner/group of the directory I try to chmod to.
But I am able to run chmod on Putty.
I am attempting to setup a script which will automatically append the proper file permissions [posix & acl's] to any new files on certain folders that I specify.
Someone Recommended
find /Users/Kevin/Desktop/TRANSFER -type f -exec chmod 777 {} ;
This only seems to run once and when new files put in I have to have the script run every so often as a cronjob, I really just want to have a script to change the permissions of files going into a folder.
How do I sweep my entire server and chmod a particular filename located in the cgi-bin to either 0, 755, etc?
For example, to disable a particular perl script running on my system on over 100 accounts in the /cgi-bin/file.cgi I want to chmod the file on every account that it comes up on that /cgi-bin/file.cgi needs to be chmod'd to 0.
Anyone know how to do this thru ssh or another method?
How do I Move Files & Sub directory without changing Chown & Chmod them?
Situation:
I need to move /home/user/public_html/blog (all files & subdir) into /home/user/public_html
On my previous server and on some other hosts, I was able to write to files (for example with PHP) without having to chmod the files first.
Now I cannot, and files are required to be chmoded properly so I can write to them.
I cannot even touch() a file with PHP.
Is there any way to have this permissions removed?
I don't want to chmod the all thing, all I want is to change the configurations so I can fwrite() or file_put_contents() normally.
I's a dedicated un-managed server, so basically any advanced configurations can be done.
I recently got webhosting with godaddy which I have now decided was a bad choice. Its "user friendly" model makes it harder. My main problem at the moment is loading forum php script and such I have to have my permission changed which i know how to do but it wont let me through ftp or godaddy's filemanager (though it says you can). *Does someone know how to do this on godaddy **or what hosting do you recommend for: ....
