I am trying to setup an article system using PHP that I have downloaded.
How do I make my files (chmod a+rw) and what excatly it means. I am using ACEFTP for uploading.

Thanks

    I think the (a) option stands for all and the +rw means give everyone read and write privelges. Are all these files in a directory? If so type chmod +rw . (within the directory). O yea just in case you dont know what chmod does.... chmod is a nix command that sets the SUID priveleges. To break it down further, you have permissions setup on a nix computer, only certain ppl access certain things, well chmod changes permissions. So by chmod a+rw you are saying everyone can read and write to this. You can also use chmod 766 and it would do the same thing I think.

    Hope this Helps!
