File permissions allow you and
others to access each file on your site for reading, writing, and executing. CGI scripts
must be made 'executable' in order to function correctly, while HTML files should be
'readable' to everyone by default.
If you need to change file permissions on a particular file or directory, follow these
steps with WS-FTP for Windows.
Right click on the file which requires permission alteration. Choose 'chmod (UNIX)' and
left click. A window should appear.
This permission are equal to 755 on Unix
Click on the check box next to the what you wish to enable. Access is split into three
categories:
- OWNER : you; the owner of the file.
- GROUP : all the other users on the system.
- OTHER : everyone else (people from the outside).
Note that this works only with WS-FTP for Windows.
