File and folder permissions N770...

[KennyDies]

Hi,

I used ubs copy to backup and external hard drive then used PHP file manager to move the folders to my share folder.

I have noticed that the permission number for these folders is 554 as opposed to 777 and are locked.

How do I change the permissions on these folders and/or delete them?

I did try within file manager but it wont let me select the folders 3 tree's down and have a "error on page" in IE.

Thanks, Ross

Could it be, that You have files bigger 2GB in that folders?
If Yes, then the PHPFILEMGR can not handle these folders - thats a limitation of php.

The only other possibility is via linux commands on the console of the N7700 .

The total size of the folder is proably over 2GB but no individual files are.

I logged in via SSH and deleted the files I dont need but can you tell me how I change permissions on the remaining ones?

Just trying to get my head round none microsoft at the moment ;-)

Thanks

The command for changing permissions is chmod.
Changing the permissions to 777 of :
- a single file is : chmod 777 filename
- all files in a directory is : chmod 777 *
- a directory and all files and folders in this directory is : chmod -R 777 directory

Yes, I tried that within SSH and it does not recognise ChMod as a function.

[peterfu]

Of Course, cause linux is case sensitive and ChMod is another thing as chmod

Ah hell, that is one of those smack my forehead moments, did not even think about that, can't get used to case sensitive, will try later.

Thanks

[peterfu]

And don't forget that also options, foldernames and filenames are case sensitive - realy everything.
