Directory Permissions unwritable!!

Since I am new to Ubuntu I will need to learn how to set my directory permission and how to access my php files for editing.

Any help you can direct me to would be grealy appreaciated.

Thank you for the joomla on ubuntu.
My only issue was psftp connection.
I did minimize putty but psftp did not auto connect.
Anyway I got it work by using the help command.

Thanks, Dick
PS I need to setup my email address, webmaster@clts.ca

OK, setting permissions is done using the chmod command however I would suggest to search a bit, there are many ubuntu/linux/unix resources for newcomers

glad you found your way with psftp

... email address is a long story that cannot be cut short

good luck
