fiveyes, Thanks. Tell me if I got it right:

- the 'other' execute bit of a directory has to be on for reading and writing in that directory.

- the 'other' execute bit of a file does not matter for reading and writing (only the read/write bits matter).

...so what does an execute have to do with in a file (beside for the x-bit-hack that makes the server parse the html as shtml)?
