Any way to protect a folder's permissions from changing??
There is a folder where everything in it should be 777... EXCEPT for one folder. How do I protect that folder's permission from any admin from accidently changing the permissions for that folder to 777?? I can forsee this because most of the time they just do a chmod -R 777 to the whole folder, but I want to protect the sub folder from changing. Pls help. Thanks in advance for all the help.

Why do you think you need perms of 777 on a directory structure? It is very, very rare that you need those types of permissions.
