TIA for any help,
I use putty's pscp.exe from a WinXPpro cmd window:
pscp -p -pwxxxx c:\....file.name
loginname@ip-address:/............../file.name

Typically the programs on the web server have permission 644, but to upload
the only setting that works
is 777.
Am I missing a option setting for pscp?

BTW-the login allows file copy & delete, but not chmod

Thanks

Are you logging in as the same user that owns the files on the web server?

You could also try psftp which has chmod and chown built in. If you're
using windows on the client, WinSCP3 is a decent gui.
