Hi all
My board is running on my own server using Windows 2000 server. I have tried installing the shoutbox hack, when it gets towards the end, it gives me an error saying something about chmod. How do I chmod a folder or directory on W2k?
Thanks
Odil

Connect to your server with an FTP client, right click on the file or folder that you want to CHMOD, and just select "CHMOD" Usually you need to set it to 777.

Well when I click on the folder, the chmod is dim, so that it won't select. What am I doing wrong?
The hack should work without giving it permissions.
From my past experiences with Windows Servers, windows should be able to be written to via the web without the permissions that you need to give on Linux Servers.

I agree, but I now have two hacks that tell me the same folder is not chmod, the backup templates hack and the shoutbox hack.
What you're going to have to do then is look around and figure out what username windows uses as the one logging in through the web server.
You then will have to specifically grant access permissions to those files through Windows, sharing Read, Write, and Execute access in that directory through the standard Win2K/NT methods.
Right-click on the folder or file in windows, and check the Security settings. Make sure that the web user has permissions to do these things in that folder.

If this is the Chatbox hack (the newer shoutbox hack by Poseidon) then you need to chmod the admin file (can't remember the name) so that the admin cp can write into it. chmod that file 777.

that sounds very interesting... might be the key to all the chmod deal with windows.. thanks
