Maybe I'm wrong, so before to ask my question, I'll explain a little what I'm trying to set up : I've a VPS where I want to have multiple users sites, with permission denied to all users to see the directories of others. It's a linux but the file-system supports only basic permissions (owner, group, other) and no ACL.
Thus I installed nginx which run as the user "nginx", then php-fpm with one pool per user running as the respective user.
Each "vhost" is listening a different port (8000 + user id - 1000) then :80 is a reverse proxy based on the domain used
That works fine with php files because fpm's pools have the read right ( it's running as the user ) . But for static files, it is directly nginx that handles them and it uses its user "nginx" which is not allowed...
I'd prefer really to be able to have each web files with 0700 or 0770 permission, so does exist a fcgi client to do that ( serving static files running as a defined user like php-fdm ) ? can fpm do that ? Or is it better to set 775 permissions ? (I could also add each user group to nginx but since some systems limit the number of groups a user can be in, I'm not sure it is a good idea...)
