[Phpgedview-talk] config.php file writable/read-only

[dennis <den...@ur...>]

Sorry I didn't make myself clearer. In Administration the screen says "Your 
config.php file is still writable. For security, you should set the 
permissions of this file back to read-only when you have finished 
configuring your site" I couldn't find a way to make it read-only in my FTP 
program, widows explorer or front page. So I downloaded it to my computer & 
changed the properties to read-only then uploaded back to my website.

Can you recommend a cheap or free FTP program that will let me change the 
file permission? I use EFTP & if I am doing this right I keep getting this 
error:
error encountered 500'SITE CHMOD 777 / command not understood
error encountered 500'SITE CHMOD 755 / command not understood

Thanks
Dennis
