| | **Notes:** - The use of CGI programs on a web site complicates the permission check. Access to the CGI program file itself is checked with user class **o**. Many web servers are configured so that file access requests from CGI programs are also checked with user class **o**. However, the SDF web server has been configured to execute CGI programs with the permissions of the owner of the program file (//you//, for CGI programs you have installed on your SDF web site). Therefore if your CGI program accesses files owned by you, permissions will be checked with user class **u**. Files not owned by you will be checked with user class **o**. || | | **Notes:** <sup>1</sup> The use of CGI programs on a web site complicates the permission check.
