Hi Ovidu,

When I unzip the version 3 bundle all the files have 777 permission level, except for cloner.config.php which is 644.

Permissions are definitley not my strong point, but am I right these should mostly be 755?

Thanks

Bill

Hi Bill, yes, please reset them to 755 for directories, and 644 for files except the cloner.cron.php file and the configs directory

Right. I've set files and folders like that and I've left the cloner.cron.php file and the configs directory to 744 which works fine.

Is that secure enough?

Many thanks

Bill

Yes, that should pretty secure, if you like to add further security and you are using Apache server, you can protect the xcloner directory with a htaccess passwd rule .
