[thelist] CF on Unix... file upload problems...

[walker]

Hey- that ps command is pretty cool!

I think I need to take a class in Unix.

to solve the prob, I didn't change the owner of the dir, I just changed the 
permissions to 757...

sounds like your solution is more to the point...

is making the directory 757 a security risk?

thanks
