Title: No ibay Write/Delete Access
Post by: MikeH on March 10, 2004, 03:03:42 PM

Using SME5.6 and want to provide client with write/delete access to the ibay containing their website so that they can manage it. Am using Dungog chroot patch to take them to their html directory but only read access is available? Is there a way to fix this without them logging on as admin?

You can change permissions and the owner for the html directory (and all the files inside)
chmod and chown commands will do it.

Thanks for that.
Found that apart from setting FTP access to Public, existing files only had to have ownership changed to the required owner using chown.

Also found the command ls -l very useful in telling me who owned what file and the permissions.
