I would like to have script that is doing automated migrations of websites from another be able to append Includes to the /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf file.
However, when I try to use echo to put append a string to the end of the file I get this:
$ sudo echo "Include thing" >> /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf
-bash: /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf: Permission denied
and yet I can vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf, add the line and :wq the file to save and close it.
What am I missing?
When I try to ssh to another box, I get this strange error
$ ssh hostname
Bad owner or permissions on ~/.ssh/config
But I made sure that I own and have rw permissions on the file:
ls -la ~/.ssh/
total 40K
drwx------ 2 robert robert 4.0K Mar 29 11:04 ./
drwx------ 7 robert robert 4.0K Mar 29 11:04 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 2.0K Mar 17 20:47 authorized_keys
-rw-rw-r-- 1 robert robert 31 Mar 29 11:04 config
-rw------- 1 robert robert 1.7K Aug 4 2010 id_rsa
-rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 406 Aug 4 2010 id_rsa.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 6.1K Mar 29 11:03 known_hosts
What is the plus sign at the end of the permissions telling me?
ls -l
total 4
drwxrwxrwx+ 2 benson avahi-autoipd 4096 Jan 27 17:37 docs
Here's the context:
cat /etc/issue
\CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
I have my cert.pem and cert.key files in /etc/apache2/ssl folders.
What would be the most secure permissions and ownership of:
/etc/apache2/ssl directory
/etc/apache2/ssl/cert.pem file
/etc/apache2/ssl/cert.key file
(Ensuring https:// access works of course :).
Thanks,

Has anyone got a nice solution for handling files in /var/www? We're running Name Based Virtual Hosts and the Apache 2 user is www-data.
We've got two regular users & root. So when messing with files in /var/www, rather than having to...
chown -R www-data:www-data
...all the time, what's a good way of handling this?
Supplementary question: How hardcore do you then go on permissions?
This one has always been a problem in collaborative development environments.
