root login to edit vhost with netbeans or eclipse on centos
Right now, I have my document root for a vhost in /var/www/html/mysite.com
I would like to do away with remote root log in. Would it be better if I moved the document root to a user home directory? That way I can login as a user to edit, and not need root. Any thoughts?
I didn't know you could 'su' in Netbeans IDE or Elcipse IDE thank you, I'll look into it.
If it does not work.
You can also add your user to the group owner of the file, and grant the read/wirte privilege to the group using chmod.
In this case you do not need to login as root.

Just FYI, 'su' just logs you in as root, BUT with your original env . You need the '-' to get root's env eg 'su - ' (default target is root user if no other specified)
