Well, just installed Apache. The webserver DOES work. I did find the directory where everything would be uploaded (/var/www/) but - I have a question.

Is root the only person allowed to upload? Also, what chmod value should my files be so that people can view (and listen) to them.

Thanks.

P.S. BTW - I did find a BASIC version of Real Producer. Works pretty nice. It's going to take awhile to make all those files, though...whew...

first question: depends on what permissions you have /var/www set to

second question: 644, generally

Well, inside /var/www, apache is the OWNER of everything, but permissions are set to chmod 644 already, so, apache can't really do anything with the directories, so root has to. Guess that kind of answers my question. (I'm just kinda worried about setting myself up with a stupid security problem.)
