This means that no one aside from root, especially Apache itself (it runs as www-data.www-data), can write to that directory. This is so that your web site contents cannot be modified if you get cracked...you'll need to change this, too, if you want your web server to be able to write to it. -- Rob Weir <rweir@ertius.org> | mlspam@ertius.org | http://www.ertius.org/ GPG keys: 1024D/1E73B7CD, 4096R/3ABDE5EC | Do I look like I want a CC?
