Sorry, I don't follow. What has /home/ftp/pub got to do with anything?

The installer will include tools like aiksaurus, dvipost etc. I want to
upload them somewhere to make it easier for people to compile the
installer. I can't upload these files to the wiki because of the file
size limit.

Please add the installer sources to the svn repository so that your code gets
backed up and we get a history of changes made.

As for non-LyX executables packaged with LyX, if you have write access to the
svn repository, you should be able to log on to aussie.lyx.org:

 ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 cd ../lyx/www/pmwiki/uploads/Windows
 mkdir Aiksaurus
 exit
 scp aiksaurus.exe \
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:../lyx/www/pmwiki/uploads/Windows/Aiksaurus/.

You'll need to go bug Lars about changing the owner of the file/directory to
apache:wiki of course. The good news for him is that he only needs to do this
once; subsequent overwrites of aiksaurus.exe will retain the existing ownership.

There is actually a workaround that doesn't require Lars to do anything,
I've documented it here:
        http://wiki.lyx.org/Site/AboutUploading#sizes

Basically you use the file manager to create directoris and crate a dummy file.
