I am new to linux and am currently using xampp 1.5.5a on Ubuntu 6.10.

I was wondering if there was some sort of document on what the final file and folder permissions should be for each sub-directory under the /opt/lampp directory for maximum security and usability.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have found this so far:

chmod 777 /opt/lampp/htdocs

any ideas for the /myphpadmin folder?

so basically I did a chmod -R 777 /opt/lampp now all files and folders have improper permissions. Is there any way to restore them or do I have to uninstall/reinstall?
