Hey,

I have a dedicated server and I am wanting /home/number1/example.php to include /home/number2/example.php.

However I am getting a permission denied error, understandably as I am trying to access a file not assigned to uid number1. How do I go about correcting this so I can do what I require?

Any help would be appreciated
