How can prevent the user from edit file ?

hello

How can prevent the user from

edit the files ( .htaccess ) ?

 

thanks

But I mean for all my clients on my server

i mean Hypothetical

i don't want any user but any command in this filse

like Disruption mod security

 

You must change the permissions of each .htaccess file, as Till said.

 

This is bad , which means that any person can overcome protection

any idea ?

 

There's no problem if you don't give your users shell access (which is a security risk) and configure ProFTPd to not show files beginning with a dot (which is the default setting).

 

thanks falko

But if penetrator able to disrupt protection

Will hacked the sites

and used the shell freely

 

how ido that

i have new client every day ?

how i make that by default

i don't want any user but any command in this filse now or later ?

 

You could setup a cron job that executes a shell script on a regular base... like every 10 min or so...

That shell script will then fetch all .htaccess files from a given directory (or maybe even subdirectories [but one level down is probably enough] and alter the ownership and file mode...

The shell script would be something like this (needs to be tested!!!):

Code:

for FILE in "$(find /var/www -maxdepth 2 -name ".htaccess")"
do
# Echo the files found
        echo $FILE
# Chown the files found
#        chown root.root $FILE
# Chmod the files found
#       chmod 0755 $FILE
done
exit 0

This above script will search all /var/www plus it will go one directory down.... assuming that you have the setup something like this:

/var/www
--> /var/www/web1
--> /var/www/web2
--> /var/www/web3

If you have the user webfolder in something like this:
--> /var/www/web3/html
Then alter the maxdepth limitation... I'm not sure if the above example is already set to one level deep or not...
Hence I did comment out the actual chownin and chmodding... first use the echo
