Changing File Permissions via FTP on a Win2K Server

[Transition]

Hello everyone,

I need to change some file specific files permissions on our Win2k Server FTP. I know how to go in on a Linux machine and CHMOD but i'm not too sure how to do it on our Win2k machine. I need to change it to the equivalent of CHMOD 751 . When i goto the FTP and try changing the permissions from there it gives me this...


The server reported an error:

'SITE CHMOD 751 FormMail.pl': command not understood


Is there a way i can just get on the server and change the file permissions there? I have access to the server as it's about 200 feet away from me.


Any help is appreciated!

Don't use CHMOD on Windows NT4.0/2000/XP/.NET (Windows 'tis not Unix, though with a Unix like kernel).
I don't know if it's possible to remotely change permissions of services on the FTP server shares of a 2000 Server from FTP.

Share permissions can be changed on the server itself. In/on the folder/directory right-click the share, select Properties then the Sharing tab. Click on the Permissions button and add/remove/change the permissions as needed for the appropriate user/group. (You can also select the Advanced button to view more Permissions.)

It is possible to change permissions remotely, but you must have remote management services installed and turned on in your 2000 Server and have the proper snap-in on your remote 2000/XP PC.

Terminal service admin console??
