I have a huge problem. My server requires my pages to be chmoded to 755 to exicute the php includes in my templates, though MT outputs the files chmoded to 666. Everytime I modify a template, add an entry, etc my site crashes. Is there a way to modify the way MT outputs the files?

for example, if MT is generating PHP files
# that need to have the executable bit turned on, you could set HTMLPerms
# to 0777. The default is 0666. You should not change these settings unless
# you know what they mean, and what they do.
#
# HTMLPerms 0777
# UploadPerms 0777

In mt.cfg around line 145 and down this can be changed by removing #.
