I'm a newbie in PHP. i'm already installed PHP & mysql in OS windows98 by using "PHPtriad" instlattion kits.

when i use some PHP program that require to be chmoded....i can't chmode that directory/files with CuteFTP program.

what should i do to chmode dirs/files? Should i install FTP server to do that? is it possible in windows98 OS?

    You shouldn't need to chmod anything in Win98, chmod is a Unix command at anyrate. AFAIK, the closest equivalent for Win98 is attrib. Since Win98 doesn't allow for directory or file permissions on a user basis (excluding directory shares of course), this isn't an issue for your setup. However if you try to run on NT or Win2K with an NTFS partition, you will need to make sure that the webserver user has been granted the appropriate permissions to the directories containing the web root and execute permissions must be granted for the php executable. Not sure if this applies if you're running PHP as a module on Apache or ISAPI filter on IIS though. Hope this helps!!!
