Full Version: CHMOD extra protection

Which files should we CHMOD to extra protection? I mean, which are the files who should have extra protection? And what do we chmod it to?

Regards. Toungue
You can CHMOD ./inc/config.php to 444... you can CHMOD other files, apart from ./inc/settings.php, to 444 if you really wanted to, but that's probably going a bit far... config.php to 444 would probably be fine.
My config is currently at 777, is that a high risk?
Yes, there's no need for it to be 777 at all, 666, the default 644 or 444 will be better.
Yeah, it's just that when I was installing, I ad to chmod a number of files. I just set them all to 777. I shall change the config.php to 444. Thanks for your support.
