You misplaced your period, it goes at the end of that line. ;) > assume that I can't run the chmod line on my own computer. Sure you can, install cygwin. chmod only affects files on your computer, and won't alter the Windows permissions (which use a different scheme), but you can do it. > My web server > uses Unix, but is it possible for me to have access to a command line > for the server?

Most basic hosting plans however don't provide shell access. > I suppose I could write a script that would set the permissions of all > the files in a particular folder on my computer to 755, but is there a > Windows equivalent command for chmod to do this? Or am I stuck having to > do it on the server side? 1. Settings permissions on your computer won't do a thing. 2. There's probably a Windows-equiv of chmod for your own files, but it won't affect files placed on another machine. 3. You're stuck having to do it on the server side. Now a good ftp program can automate this for you, but it's still your job, not the servers. These sound like good questions for your hosting provider, or failing that, google. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
