How to secure SugarCRM

[kuriharu]

Hello all,

To install Sugar CRM, it needs write permission on the modules directory and on most of the .php files in the main sugar directory (/var/www/sugar on my system).

I'd like to secure the system, but each time I change permissions Sugar gets broken. The only way to get it to work is to use something like chmod -R 777 * in my sugar directory. Of course, this leaves that directory open to anyone who logs in.

This is on a Debian Linux system running Apache2, PHP4. Thanks!
