Default Re: Need linux help

Ok, I opened a terminal window
changed dir to /var
Sudo chmod 777 www

This ran in the admin mode and allowed all to write/red/exec to the www dir. May not be the most correct 755 may have been smarter, but I'll work that out in time. By using the sudo command I did not need to take ownership. Safer I guess at least for the time being.

Thanks for those who provided tips.
