Hi,

I'm in the process of setting permissions while I'm doing the installation of the board ... or at least I think I'm setting them, I have little boxes to tick that say Owner/Group etc (complete non technical newby here).

I'm up to the line in the installation instructions that says "files within the styles/ directory: set permissions to 0666" but when i open the styles directory there is another directory for images. Do I tick the boxes in it? Also in the same place is an Index.html thingy, do I tick it's boxes?

Any help would be appreciated \:\)

cheers
Djuma

**Editted to add ... and down further it says "directories within the gallery/default directory: set permissions to 0777 " do I tick the boxes in the gallery/default directory as well?

sub folders should be 777, files in sub-folders should be 666.

Thanks Gizmo,

What about the Index.html one, is that a file so should be 666?

if the index files aren't chmodded, the permission checker will spew an error; so where they don't have to be, it'd be good to just get an "ok" in the permission checker.

And after you learn that you'll realize Gizzy has his very own sub version of this gobbledegook.
