Hello,

I think safe_mode_include_dir does not work properly with symbolic
links. Here my configuration:


<VirtualHost 134.96.x.y>
    DocumentRoot /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub/htdocs
    ServerName sub.doma.in

    <IfModule mod_php4.c>
        php_admin_value safe_mode 1
        php_admin_value safe_mode_exec_dir /usr/bin
        php_admin_value safe_mode_include_dir /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub

        php_admin_value open_basedir /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub

        php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub/tmp

        php_admin_value include_path .:/kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub/lib_php

        php_admin_value error_reporting 2023
    </IfModule>


</VirtualHost>


I copied

    /usr/local/lib/php/.

to

    /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub/lib_php/

(PEAR).

Everthing in .../sub/lib_php/. is owned by root.root, the remaining
files and dirs in .../sub/ by vs1.www

If I try to include 'System.php' I get this error:

    Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is
    504 is not allowed to access
    /kunden/hosting/server/doma.in/sub/lib_php/System.php owned by uid
    0 in /var/www/doma.in/sub/htdocs/index.php on line 9

You should know there is a symbolic link:

    /kunden/hosting/server -> /var/www


If I change the line with safe_mode_include_dir as following
    
    php_admin_value safe_mode_include_dir /var/www/doma.in/sub

the include statements works as expected.

Regards,
   Martin
