Ok, that worked. I guess the mode was messed after I reinstalled
stuff that was corrupted after my recent hd crash. Thanks Mikko.
I'm already familiar with the rwx flags, but not with the others.
Where can I find info about the 4-digit modes that change system
flags, such as above?

Now, why isn't httpd allowed access to /bin for shell scripts, if
SECURELEVEL=1 ? I thought I read somewhere that /bin should be
accessible by anyone (ie: general system binaries)?
