Thanks for the link!
Here's what I did that got everything to work correctly.
First I added apache to my 'www' group I created for multiple users to edit a single file. Next I chmoded -R g+s /var/www/test which is my DocumentRoot in apache.
That seems to have solved all my problems with permissions and getting the 403 Forbidden error! Now all I have got to do is get cgi scripts to work!
Thanks for everyone's help. I hope this can help someone in the future
:)Be afraid, be very afraid.
Have you read the thread about the guy who recently discovered his machine was compromised, by a CGI script.
Nope where is that? Was it due to bad programing in the CGI script?
Whatever the case may be I have to have this machine set up to where multiple people can edit a file and still have Apache work correctly.
