Two approaches you might consider would be: 1. Create a user account for your web data to be held under, change the ownership of /var/www/html to that user, and have your web designers use that account name and password when uploading their files from their windows machines to your web server. This is a fairly simple approach but it's difficult to tell who wrote which files. 2. Create a group account for your web data to be held under, and make each of your web designers' accounts a member of that group. Change the group ownership of /var/www/html to that group, and make it group writable. Make sure that whichever means you use to upload files to this area (e.g. FTP server) has an appropriate umask setting so that it writes files with the group write permission set. Each file uploaded will then be owned by the person that initially uploaded it, but can be overwritten by any other member of the group. Paul.
Thanks paul, this is what exactly I wanted to know. Thanks again
