[Serusers] FIFO PROBLEM

[Jim Burwell]

This is a permissions problem on the /tmp/ser_fifo file.  SER's default 
permissions don't allow Serweb/Apache/PHP to access the fifo.  I fixed 
this by creating a new unix group called "serfifo", making the "apache" 
user a member of the group, and making the /tmp/ser_fifo file's group 
ownership "serfifo", and giving it group read/write permissions.  You 
can do this by doing a chgrp + chmod in your startup script, or (better) 
by using the "group=" and "fifo_mode=" directives in the ser.cfg file.  
These directives were somewhat  broken in older releases, but I think 
they're working in 0.8.12.
