    How to CHMOD config.php file (Linux Server)?

    Hi everyone, I am using a Linux server for my Forum, and I am not just a bit confused, I been looking for an answer about which CHMOD options will be best on a LINUX server to protect the config.php file in "includes/config.php" !

    I been in VBSEO and many other places to search for an answer, and to be honest I didnt find any correct answer. The reason why I say I didnt find any correct answer is because EVERYONE had a different opinion about it, and different CHMOD numbers.

    So if anyone could please let me know, what options or CHMOD would be the most safest way to protect the Config.php file! Thank you!

    By the way, here is the state of my files, already CHMOD'ed now:

    Includes folder: chmod 0755
    Config.php File: chmod 0604

    Thank you very much in advance, for your answers!

    Regards CM

        Your best option is to ask your webhost. Each flavor of Linux has its own special things.
