Hi All,

I'd like to give a user write access to the /srv/www/ directory (on his local 
machine) so he can easily test local web pages. I figure I can create a 
group, give the user membership, and change the group of the directory 
accordingly.

A) Will I also have to make root a member of that group?
B) Would this create a security loophole?
C) Is this what the www group is for?

Cheers

Dylan
