FW-Mike 06-22-2003, 05:53 PM chmod 666 doesn't allow excute but allows read/write for all users. Id probably chmod it to 644. Skeez 06-22-2003, 06:34 PM Atheist, its Windows. Windows doesn't have CHMOD..... FW-Mike 06-22-2003, 07:16 PM LOL Sorry about that! I'm a linux guy, no clue how to do it on windows ;) alapo 06-22-2003, 07:47 PM You can remove execute permission inside IIS. chuckt101 06-22-2003, 09:06 PM i've never admin'ed windows server, but isn't it same concept as anything else? I mean I can upload an executable to a linux server and execute that but it's not going to be destructive as long as the server is configured correctly. Just don't let people execute programs as root or admin or whatever windows uses these days. chuckt101 06-22-2003, 09:09 PM ...
