Could someone tell me how to change file permissions using cgi???

For some reason I'm having trouble with that.... I don't usualy work with cgi, it's kind of confusing.

Thanks.

You can't change permissions with CGI, but you probably can with which ever language your CGI script is written in.

For Perl, you can use:

chmod(0755, 'file');

doesn't look like it works, the chmod is still the same.... I don't get an error though.

Did you change the mode? the '0755' was just an example. You need to set it to the actual mode you want to change the permissions on the file to.
