Upload files from FileZilla

[Wizet]

How do you upload files from FileZilla to your own server as in your own PC server. If you still do not get what I mean then look below

Instead of trying to connect to x10 servers I want to try to connect my home PC which is C:/Abyss Web Server/htdocs. The purpose of me doing this is because I need to chmod some files.

Its simple.
Open FileZile>>File>>Site Manager>>New Site>>Enter the details>>Click ok.

Then after that
Again Open FileZile>>File>>Site Manager>>Choose you site profile>>Click Connect.


Now your local files will be listed in a tab.Select those files>>Right Click>>Upload Files.

Got it????

I mean for like if your using your own computer what do you put in for host.

localhost would be a good choice

 

[Wizet]

uh nope here's what I put in if I had a problem:
Host:localhost
Username:root
password:
port:21

 

[Anna]

depends on how you did setup your ftp server on your computer (you can't connect through ftp without a server that answers on the machine)

??? Is there another way chmod files?

windows does not have chmod options (it's a *nix thing).

 

[Wizet]

Darn is there a free program that allows it?

Off-Topic: Whats so bad about that word?

I ran a google search actually - NTFS supports a permissions system similar to CHMod, but fat32 assumes full permissions.


So if you're on XP or Vista with the New Type File System on drive C, CHMod will work, although it seems theres DEFINITELY some differences to this:

http://www.networkclue.com/os/Windows/commands/cacls.aspx is the Windows command for it. Frankly it's a bit aggressive though from my own experience, so be veeeeeery careful with that one.




And off topic reply, *nix = 'unix like' but shortened to avoid copyright issues. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/*nix

There's a ton of ones that can be considered UNIX including the linux distributions, so I always took *nix to mean "any one of the varying linux packages." Seems I'm not right either though, theres more to it than that
