Hating Linux Permissions
November 18, 2002

Does this permission scheme make sense to anyone else?  Please explain it to me, because I just don't get it.

I can assign an owner.  I can set permissions for the owner, a group, and others.  For some reason, I cannot get the permissions configured to allow for both FTP access and writability via PHP.  It's one or the other, which is very inconvenient.  In fact, it's not just that, but if I turn on the ability to FTP, I can no longer read files with a web browser.  Oh, the humanity!

Whew...

Well, the Archives page is online, finally.  I think I still need to tweak it a bit, but it's pretty much there.  I'll have to add a thing that lets you switch between years and channels, too.  Ok, so it's not quite done.  Oh, well.  At least you can get to the older articles now without searching for them.

On another interesting note, Allen has his site up and running in PageCat, too, over at Pseudomain.net.  I think that it looks pretty good, even for just getting started.  Maybe now that the Google and Ask Jeeves robots are spidering my site several times a day, he'll get indexed via a jump from the link above.
