We use ssh to access through telnet. A simple program for accessing your GOLD or above account via telnet is availabe here: [Putty.exe download page]

Login with your assigned account username and password.

What is chmod?

chmod changes the access permissions or modes of the specified files or directories. Modes determine who can read, change or execute a file.

Quick telnet reference table:

PERMISSION COMMAND
U G W      
rwx rwx rwx chmod 777 filename
rwx rwx r-x chmod 775 filename
rwx r-x- r-x chmod 755 filename
rw- rw- r-- chmod 664 filename
rw- r-- r-- chmod 644 filename
 

U = User
G = Group
W = World


r = readable
w = writable
x = executable
- = no permission


How do I chmod a file on my server without telnet access?

We recommend WS_FTP as an FTP program. It will allow you to chmod any file easily.
