*disclaimer only linux/unix nerds will know what this means*

ug, thats like the guy I saw the other day troubleshooting a program in linux, if it doesn't work just set everything to 777 that will fix it.

It didn't...

"777 is all permissions for the user, the group and the world"

I got pissed and sent the Center for Internet Security instructions for IIS7 to the developer and said you lock down this server I don't have time for this shit. Told him if we fail it's your fault not mine, I'm supposed to be off today but have a major project due to be delivered 1am Monday morning and it is killing me due to other shitty developers. I don't care about the CC certification that starts later Monday morning on a server that should have been turned over to me two weeks ago + but wasn't given to me until today.
