CuteFTP remotecommand chmod

[cbozlagan]

CuteFTP chmod command doesn't work properly althought HPUX /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess has line below

chmod yes ftpuser

what could be wrong with it?

thanks

With no information, who could guess?

Anonymous or named-user FTP?

Owner/group/permissions on the
files/directories involved?

What did you do? What happened when you did
it? Hint: "doesn't work properly" is not a
useful description.

Can you do the "chmod" using a different FTP
client? (That is, is it actually a problem
with CuteFTP, or is it a problem with the FTP
server?)

if the remote host is HP-UX, try this command

> site chmod 666

The site command will issue the chmod on the remote machine. some FTP clients do not have the chmod command. ( AIX for one).
