I've heard alot about chmod, but I can't find much about it online. I am running my own webserver, apache2.0 with php5.0, and I have no idea if I even need to mess with chmod, or if it's only used for remote webservers.

I've looked around the I think it's only for remote servers, but I want to make sure I'm not leaving something important out

any help would be greatly appreciated

chmod is the setting of permissions to directories, its for both local and remote *nix machines. If your webserver is running under Windows, then there is no need to chmod, If you are on Linux then you need it.
