Re: [cobalt-users] Editing httpd.conf

[chris <chris@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

first, to be able to edit root-owned files, you need to "su root" (you
change your user "admin" for "root"). The "permission denied" will
disappear. As for your huge log files you can just delete it and
recreate one

rm access
touch access

sincerely,
chris
