    Folder \"db"\ is out of the public area of your web site. Any content you placed inside the \"db"\ folder is not accessible via http protocol to the visitor.
  2. Read/Write Access:
    System user has complete read-write access of the \"DB"\ folder, while the other folders like \"www"\ & folders inside that are read-only folder.
