Heya,

I'm completely NEW to SSH, and I'm really confused on what to do. I've downloaded Putty.

I want to CHMOD public_html/radiocontrol/content/user_1/playlists directory to 777

What would I need to type in?

thanks

You will need to login to your SSH as root and need to follow below mentioned command:

chmod 777 /home/username/public_html/radiocontrol/content/user_1/playlists directory.

Once you fire the above command it will set the 777 permission to playlists directory.

Hey, why don't you use FTP to chmod files? It should be easier.

Why are you taught basic math before introduced to a calculator?
