Hi, I've decided to setup apache to store logfiles in the user's own directory, say ~user/logs. I also want to make those logfiles part of the users quota. Here comes the bit thats stumped me... if I create a virtual host for the user, and I don't create the log directory, apache won't start because the log directory doesn't exist. If I do create the log directory (as root), the normal ownerships for the directory are user root group <user>, which the user can delete, hence if done apache wouldn't start. So if I make ownership root/wheel, the user can't delete it and apache will be fine as the directory will always be there. But.... then the log files will be the ownership of root and won't count in the quota. Its fried my brain trying to work out the right method for this, so I'm writing this to see if anyone out there can help me out with the situation - either correcting where I went wrong or maybe suggesting an alternative.
