Setting Permissions
If you edit your files directly in the CCLI , you will
probably need to set their permissions before they will be
publicly available on the web. If the permissions are not set
right, your audience will see a page that says "Forbidden" instead
of the page you intended.
To set the permissions:
- Telnet (or preferably, ssh) to login.hu.mtu.edu and
log in to your account. Remember that,
by default, your UNIX password
is your M-number.
- At the command prompt, type permissions and
hit enter. All the directories and files in your public_html folder
are now public.
- You may want to leave the telnet or ssh session open in
a background window, so that you can type the command in
again if needed. Tip: to retype the previous command in UNIX,
use the up arrow.
