RH 8 setup w/Apache. Can't ftp files (put) into /var/ (docroot). Can however get a dir list.

Also, from the console only root can actually create files in that dir. Anyone else who tries gets "E212: can't open file for writing". This appears to be a permissions issue. Who should own /var/ /var/ and the files therein?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
