User Privileges
I have used several Linux Flavors and now I need to know something. I have the ROOT user and then I have my personal user. What I need to do is for my normal user to be able to write files to directories where appearntly, only the root user has privileges.
For example, to write files to /var/www/html I have to be in SU mode or logged in as root. I would like to do this with my normal user as myself. Can someone tell me how to set this up? Thanks Gregg |

man chown
man chmod That's your first point of info! Then change the ownership of the directory to your user and give that user read & write access! There you are - BIG hints!!!
