Step 1:
Changing your access permissions with SSH Transfer Client
is very easy. Simply select (by clicking on it with your mouse) the
file/folder whose permissions you want to change and then right-click
your mouse. A dialog box will pop up...scroll down to and select "Properties". *You
may also notice that when you right-click a folder or a file you have
the option to delete it...be careful because SSH is based on UNIX and
in UNIX environments once you delete something it is gone...permanently...there
is no "recycle bin" here. Also, to delete a folder, you must
empty its contents first...that means you must delete everything in
it before you can actually delete the folder itself.* After
selecting "Properties" you should get this
window:
Either by typing the number in the "Permission mode" field or by
clicking the approriate boxes, you should have a numerical value of 755 for
your public_html folder and hit "OK". You should
only have to do this once...unless you change it again. To change the access
permissions of files...repeat the process by clicking on the appropriate
file(s). As a general rule the files within your
public_html folder should have a numerical value of 644.
This gives you, the owner, read and write permissions, gives group read permission,
and gives other read permission as well. If the file is an executable, you
may need to give group and other permission values of 5 for your files. If
you don't want anyone to have any kind of access to your files/folders (whichever
and where ever they may be) give group and other access
permissions of 0.
Note:
If you ever have trouble viewing your webpages online...save
yourself a little headache and CHECK
THE ACCESS PERMISSIONS FIRST. This should be the first
step in the trouble-shooting process.
