voidmain:
Windows ftp.exe is not fully functional. The ftp server has the capability but if you don't use a client that is able to take advantage of that functionality then you will not be able to chmod.

Now, your web server does not allow telnet which is good but does allow ssh access?  Download putty.exe from http://www.openssh.org/ and try to connect to the server via ssh (make sure you click ssh in the putty logon because it also supports telnet by default).

Calum:
no they don't seem to support ssh or rlogin either.

there's precious little actual technical info available on their website either ( www.netfirms.com  , they are really proud of now being able to support frontpage extensions...   :rolleyes:  ) however i cannot do this chmodding thing with ftp.exe and i thought that meant i could therefore not do it in windows however that turned out to be a pile of pants since i connected using ws_ftp95le (my GUI ftp client for windows) and hey presto, chmod is suddenly supported. so i used that.

voidmain:
ewwww, front page extensions...

Calum:
http://calumsmusic.netfirms.com/cgi-bin/1stperlscript.cgi

that's where i have put the script. When i visit it with a browser i get a 500 error (it is mozilla 1.0 on WinME not that it matters) and the file's permissions are 755. I am flummoxed, the file exists because i tried taking out the cgi-bin/ part and i got a 404.

Master of Reality:
i gots a 500 error too.... i dunno what to tell you.
