Does your host FTP server even allow changing its properties?
if you are the owner of the files, you ought to be able to change the permissions. If youre not, and lets say Apache is, you wont be able to.
Does your host FTP server even allow changing its properties?
FTP is a protocol that follows the same file standards that any other remote access protocol uses, like, for instance, ssh or telnet. If you cannot change the permissions via FTP you cant change them from within a telnet or secure shell session. Its a permissions thing, not what is being used to access the files.
How to I become owner of the files? Of this is pre-set by my host, meaning if I want to change the propoerties I need to change my host??
