Okay I created a group called developers, then I:
(The folder containing the website source is "devdir")
#chgrp developers devdir
the folder now shows up as owned by root by the group is developers
I'm not use the right way to use chmod to set the permissions. I think I'm
supposed to do this:
# chmod -R 775 devdir
Is that right? anything else to do?
Thanks in advance
Russ
