CHMOD Files/Folder - 777/775

[InfiniteTech]

Does any one know how to CHMOD Files/Folder to 777/775 without SSH?

I mean by just one or two clicks change all files and folders to 777 or 775?

.htaccess????

Help me!

Use an FTP client, nearly all will let you set that.
Depending on what control panel, if any, you have access to that should do it too.

I mean how do I do it to all my files and folders without having to do it manually for each and every folder/file.

Just suppose I am using phpBB. How do I do it for all the files inside so many folders at once?

I know you can do it via SSH by "-R" command.. is there any other way?

You can do that either with the File Manager in Cpanel or with your FTP program ...

However, why do you want to set files to 777 or 775 in the first place?

THAT IS EXTREMELY INSECURE PERMISSION SETTINGS!

777 means anyone can modify, read, or execute the file without restrictions

775 means anyone can execute the script and the owner and everyone
in the group can do everything to the file.

(Just a side trivia point, files set to 777 would be totally inaccessible
at Cybertoad Networks because our web servers can't access any
files with global permission bits set. On our service, you would use
600 as the permission setting for that same file)

amz - can people set 700 on your servers? How do you set permissions for CGI files?
