If a user in a ISP create a file .php3 with read/write functions,
he'll have permissions to read/overwrite some private files.
I need a way to specify which directory will be viewed by the parser.
In the php3.ini file there are some directives, but only for binary mode
of using php3, not as module in apache.
Thanks,
