I'll also note "unlocking the forum" not only changed the permissions on every FUDforum file the web server uid had access to, it also recursed into the httpd and htdocs directory, and changed all the permissions there as well. It is likely it would have continued to recurse and change permissions on everything that was writable by that uid/gid had i not stopped it before it managed to recurse out of the main directory where my fudforum, httpd and htdocs live.

This is very bad behavior. You should immediately disable that "feature" until you can keep it from changing non-FUDforum files. As our web server runs more applications than just FUDforum, and is dependent upon a somewhat delicate permissions structure, following the instructions here basically screwed a large portion of our web site. The lock/unlock feature is broken in a very big way.
