HiI have WebDNA 5.1 on OSX box. I have a system that uses files in theGlobalsfolder quite a lot and I'm trying to sort out an easy way for me toeditthem without being at the server.I can obviously set up an ftp account to that folder but when I do Idon'thave the correct permissions to edit. I can also file share to theserver asit is in the same room but again over file sharing I can't get therightpermissions.Can I just change the permissions on that folder to www www or doesthateffect other things etc? Anyone any magic tricks that will change myftpprefs or any other way?        





On Linux you can get kinda fancy w/ the FTP server and have every fileuploaded be set w/ the right permissions.  Unfortunately, I don't knowwhat the FTP engine is in OS X, so that can make it a bit moredifficult.  The way I always did it was to use file sharing and thenSSH to set permissions.  I would open the connection via File Sharing,move the files and then do the following in my local terminal:ssh jesse@server.comtype my passwordcd /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/WebCatalogEngine/Globals/sudo sutype my passwordchmod -R 660 *chmdo -R +x *chown -R jesse:www *And the flush the webcatalog prefs.Once the files are there, you can edit them or replace them and thepermissions generally stay the same.--           Jesse Williams-ProudmanBlue Box Development :: Custom Web Solutions    +1.206.778.8777 :: jesse@blueboxdev.com              *Happy Holidays*-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed tothe mailing list <WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com>.To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <WebDNA-Talk-off@talk.smithmicro.com>To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to<WebDNA-Talk-digest@talk.smithmicro.com>Web Archive of this list is at: http://webdna.smithmicro.com/
