777 permissions

Are the files and folders supposed to have 777 permission, files like admin.php?

Re: 777 permissions

It really depends on your server.  Most these days will support 755, or a combination of 755 for directories and 644 for files.  777 is a catch-all that will always work, but that permissions level is not optimal on shared hosting environments.

It really depends on your server.  Try 755, if it works, you're good to go.

Re: 777 permissions

Depends on your host server.  If you're in a shared environment and there's the potential for another account on that server to traverse into or read into your account's directory, then yes, 777 is a risk, unless the other shared sites are trusted.
