How to use commands on web server?

  • If I have a command I want to enter on my web server like this:

    find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

    Where do I type this in at? I’m familiar with FTP… do I need to use a separate program to use this command?

  • Yes, more than likely. Most FTP clients and FTP servers do not allow you to gain access to host commands.

    And many web hosts do not allow you to run command line commands like that on the web host, at all, not matter what program you use.

    Talk to your web host to confirm this one way or the other.
