[cobalt-users] groups and permissions in web server - update access to file

["Jim Carey" <ozbcoz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a file that I want all of my sites to be able to read - so I have
placed
that file in /home/direct/file

Now I would like to be able to use a PHP script to update the file. How can
I
set up permissions, ownership etc  so that I can update this file via a
browser
- is this possible  without necessarily making it chmod 777 - I would like
some control over who can write to it but I want the update from a browser

?

cheers
