Thanks for this insight. I am struggeling with exactly the same problem. Allow me a couple of questions.
Why is mambo running as user nobody? Why does it not runn under my username? It is after all my account. Should php or Apache not know that the script is owned by the user who uploaded it?
Second question would setting everything to 777 and 666 not compromize security? Would that not mean that anyone can read write and execute in these directories?
Sorry if I just display my ignorance. But calling the ISP on a houerly rate when I install and remove mambo components is not nice and i like to find a solution to this problem.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Regards Manfred
