• If you are the server:

Choose an operating system:

NT4/Win2k

Windows XP Pro

 

• If you are NOT the server:

If you are running off another server, you need to look at any FAQ or support pages that the provider may have or contact the administrator on how you can change permissions. If you connect to server using FTP, many servers allow you to change the permissions using COMMAND:> SITE CHMOD.

Many FTP programs allow you to do this, this is obtained by right clicking a directory and clicking change file attributes and simply checking what permissions you want to allow. Pictured to the right is a screen capture of the options provided in CuteFTP which may be similar to other programs.
