Chmods: what values?
Translation by Google - Update the current translation
Chmod GuppY version 5
The most common rule is to chmod the directories to 755 and files 644.
A practice increasingly common among hosts is to practice the allocation of rights automatically.
These values ​​are good in many cases but must be adapted according to the security policy of the host concerned.
CAUTION: It is imperative to refer to the documentation for your host about it.
Examples :
Files data/* 666
Note: / * means that all files in the directory should be as shown chmodes
example:
File data / * : rights = 666. UNIX command = chmod 666
data / * means all files in the data directory must be chmod 666
