It looks like PHP (under Apache 2.0.63) is creating as 0644, with
owner/group set to 99/99. Perl is also creating as 0644, but with
owner/group set to 32007/32009.

Most of the text files I'm using are only accessed by PHP, but the
"private message" section is used by both Perl and PHP, so I'm now
having a permission issue. I crossed this barrier with Session
variables that were set by PHP by changing the permission like this:

$sess_file = "/tmp/sess_" . session_id();
if (is_file($sess_file)) chmod($sess_file, 0644);

I'm confused as heck, to be honest. I changed the parent directory to
0777, and the Perl script that creates the directories says:

mkdir("$basepath/$users_path/$user", 0777);

But still, the new directories that are created are still being set to
0755. What??? That's a thread for a different NG, though.

I guess the question at this point is, how can I modify PHP so that it
can read files with permission 0644, owner/group = 32007/32009, in a
directory with permission 0777, o/g 32007/32009?
