[cobalt-users] Can't load rpm files via FTP (Help)

Memo from Andrew Broxholme of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

I have a new leased raq3 which I can install normal html files to without a
problem, I can also telnet into the server but I can't understand the various
instructions about how to load all the .rpm files to get MySQL and PHP working
on the server. Can someone give me an example of what I would need to type in
the telnet client to load for example MySQL-shared-3.22.32-7.i386.rpm to the
server (One of about 8 .rpm files that I need to load.

I tried lots of variations of Put...   and ftp followed by the path to the file
but all I got was errors. When I tried FTPing from WS_FTP I got permission
denied which think was because ws_ftp doesn't allow root access. I am using
Windows 95/ 98 to connect to the server.

Any help would be appreciated as I am a newbie when it comes to unix/ linux/ ftp
etc

Andrew
