Virtual User Permissions

Hi. I followed a guide on setting up virtual users (for FTP) and there is a generic user/group for everyone (say ftpuser under ftpgroup).

Under PHP everyone can read each others files on shared hosting which seems bad security being able to read other peoples config files etc. how is this dealt with? any ideas?

 

Use PHP Safe Mode: http://php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php

 

Thanks but it says its deprecated.
