RE: [cobalt-users] RaQ4r - Changing of the httpd.conf file

["Kennedy, Robert" <RKennedy@xxxxxxxxx>]

You can download it because the admin account has read permissions on that
file, but you can't write to the file, so you can't overwrite it w/ your
changed version..  Why not just telnet or ssh into the machine, use
pico/vi/[other editor] to edit it as root, and save it (after copying the
original to httpd.conf.back of course) ;)  

Hope this helps..

Subject: [cobalt-users] RaQ4r - Changing of the httpd.conf file


All

I use my ftp software and login as admin to my server as normal.

I go to the directory /etc/httpd/conf and download the httpd.conf file.

I edit it to the way I want it but when I try and ftp it back up to the
server I get an error saying Permission Denied.

Why can I download but not upload the file?

How else can I edit the file?

Cheers

Paul
