another urgent request - ugh - PHPSuExec

[sfullman]

Ok, in the latest episode of this saga with PHPSuExec -
I find that session files are being written in the /tmp folder as sess_nnn where nnn is a 32 character hex string.

The PROBLEM if you want to call it that is that these session files are written read-write (rw--------) with the owner and group being the website account name - not "nobody" as before phpSuExec.

Which is fine but, previously I would pass the sessionid from any one of my sites, to my shipping cart domain on the same server, which would then just take over that session - however I cannot do that now.

Is there any way to tell php to write these session files in a different way? Otherwise I'm gonig to have to come up with some new method I've never dealt with before.

Thanks,
Samuel

Have you considered using a database to store session data rather than files (as has been suggested in this thread)?

but what I did is to have the shopping cart domain do a call back to the respective domain with the session id, and have that domain curl it back to me. Since someone has to know the session key to get it, and I'm only sending shopping cart, this works fine for me
