Thread: Linux Permissions for Wordpress (LAMP)

i'm trying configure linux server secure permissions in /var/www. i've read shouldn't add user account www-data group various reasons. instead, it's best (i'm told) create separate developer's group.

here's came with:

code:

group add developers

code:

usermod -a -g developers my_account

code:

chown -r root:developers /var/www

code:

find /var/www/ -type d -exec chmod 2775 {} \;

code:

find /var/www/ -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;

finally, i'd set default umask to:

code:

umask 002

questions:
(a). reasonably secure? (b). of redundant? (c). setup require change of default umask? if so, what?
