Change file attributes

Hello

I am on a shared access server so my host won't allow me to change the attributes of three files. Is there a way around this? I can't do it currently from my desktop, is there some software I can download to change the attributes before I load via FTP?

Thanks

Andy

 

Attributes such as permissions or file ownership?

 

Yes I need to change the permission level. It is so I can load a generator to automatically generate a detailed sitemap to the server. There are three files and I need to change the permissions and input a numeric value.

I'd appreciate your assistance

Thanks

Andy

 

I Still dont get are you talking about file chmod ?? if so we can do that via ftp if you are talking about changing file username try using php with chown command

 

You can change permissions via FTP or from File Manager (if you have cPanel not sure about other cp). Also, I am not sure why your host is not allowing you to change the file permissions.

You will change the file permissions through ftp or c panel or other wise you will do that in SSH also.
