FTP Permissions 10.2.8 . HELP ME Please (I've done my homework)
Ok,
So I have spent hours looking.
Yes I know, its an old Xserve running 10.2.8.
I wanted to change the default umask for files being sent via FTP.
I want the GROUP to inherit WRITE Privs. So I believe i am correct in saying
"umask all 002"
I found this Apple KB which Appeared to be the ticket but did not work.
It uses the command "defumask" :
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301328
But it DID NOT Work for me.
I have also applied the following line at the end of the file:
Library/FTPServer/Configuration/ftpaccess
umask all 002
This is not working,
and I have tried creating folder etc/ftpd.conf
and using "umask all 002"
* I believe this works with "OS X" but not "OS X SERVER 10.2.8"
So PLEASE PLEASE.
My hair has been yanked.
TIA

When you ftp to a machine, you are logging into that machine. The machine's shell settings are put into your environment. Most FTP servers do have the ability to change those settings according to the FTP server's configuration.
This basically adds up to 3 ways that the file perms could be set. How the FTP server is configured to set them, the user's settings for how to set them, and the parent directory could have sticky permissions (you're probably used to seeing it as inherited permissions).
The FTP server can probably change the user's settings, but the filesystem would override the user's settings.

Some days ago i started to have some issues with the internet connection on my iphone (i have an iphone 4s). when it started i couldnt find any wireless available so i turned off the phone and turn it back on and problem solved, when that sttoped working i just disabled the wi-fi button and wait a few seconds and turn it back on and problem solved, and than that stopped working as well so i reset the network setting and problem solved and now nothing of that things work and the wi-fi button is not available anymore. The problem is not from the internet because my ipod can connect easily and the internet works perfectly on my computer as well... Please help me
Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)

Help again please...don't want to muck up the whole catalog...
About a month ago, Rob Cole, DJ_Paige, JohnBeardy and Richard Plondon patiently lead me through the steps to create best practices in establishing catalog workflow with LR as I made my transition from a combo of Media Pro, Photo Mechanic and Name Mangler to Lightroom as my mainstay.
Guys, thanks again. I've taken your advice 100%. The most daring move for me was to put ALL my files in one catalog - of necessity on an external HDD - and this became the home of all my files (backed up to another external drive, of course). Once I was comfortable with this, I deleted the "current month" catalog I was also making just to be sure I could get work done (I merged this with the main (now only) catalog.
I took all the advice to do everything starting and ending in LR and it has worked fine for my laptop and imac - the catalog is saved in Dropbox and when I back it up, I do it locally on whichever machine I am using...so far so good...this all seems sensible and has worked fine for me. I would often take a bunch of pix and save them to the laptop, add them to the LR cat and then when I go home, move them to the External HDD and then when I launched LR on the desktop the HDD is connected to, I would "find" the folder location in LR.
Now as I'm getting ready to go away for 2 weeks and need to work on some of the files and print a few of them. Yikes - hadn't thought of PRINTING in this workflow before!!
I've made Smart Previews of roughly the last 6 months of work, so I will be able to edit and manipulate and even email anything, but printing is another matter. Unless I've missed something I can't print from a Smart Preview, even in a "draft" mode quality.
My short term solution was to select a range of files, hoping to have all that I want and copied them to my laptop and will open and edit (I needed PS anyhow because it will involve some compositing that needs layers for this project). Then when I get home, I can pretty easily just import the finished files to LR and I'll be fine.
My question is really how should I handle this in the future? I have 2 locations that I frequently visit and can print at and often print new shots (easy) and that sometimes leads to wanting to print other ones - probably less often than it seems because I'm thinking I can't do that any longer with the system of housing all the files on the external drive at home. Is there any solution other than going back to a 2 catalog use of LR (I was keeping roughly the trailing 12 months in a second catalog that I synced on the laptop and destop and it worked fine except that it did mean 2 catalogs).
Is there a best practice that addresses this issue?
Many thanks - this forum has been critical in making the move to LR and I'm really glad I did. I no longer need about 4 apps that I used in my workflow...

FTP problems with Airport!!! Please HELP!!!
Hi! I recently found out about my school offering wireless access on campus. I have been using it regularly without any problems until I tried updating my website. I use Adobe Dreamweaver to create and upload pages to my site via FTP. Usually when I am at home I am connecting to the internet via dial-up and everything works fine. But, at school, the FTP will not connect to my site. I have tried disabling the firewall and messing with the Share settings, but nothing seems to work. Someone told me that FTP would not work over a wireless network, but I don't see why it wouldn't! Please HELP!
Someone told me that FTP would not work over a wireless network...
They are wrong.
Unfortunately there is no way we can help you without knowing how the school network is configured. They could have FTP access blocked. -

HELP ME PLEASE. Computer not starting up!!!
Last night I tried to do a software update on my computer. There were 4 total updates (2 for the Airport, 1 for the iPod, and 1 for the Mac OS). After completing the updates for the Airport and for the iPod, the Mac stopped halfway while updating the Mac OS software. The computer requested a restart/shutdown for the updates which I proceeded to do.
However, the Mac did not shut down smoothly. It stayed frozen for a moment. I had to force it to shut down. Then when I tried to restart the computer, the Mac is left frozen at the startup (I see the grey Apple logo with the spinning progress indicator in the bottom).
The Mac has 2 accounts (my wife and I). She is the administrator and we usually do software updates while we’re in her account. Last night, I did the update while I was on my account. Do you think this has anything to do with it?
HELP ME PLEASE…………………..Vanan Murugesan,
Software Update (SU) normally works well but in your case it appears to have partially updated the System, leaving it a mismash of old and new components and hence unusable. As a personal preference, I never combine OS or security updates with other updates such as iTunes; I'll either use SU separately for the System update or download the stand-alone installer and bypass Software Update entirely.
Can you boot from your OS X Install disc / Restore DVD? (The actual disc name varies depending on what model Mac you have and what OS was originally installed on it --- you can add that info to your posts via the My Settings link under your username in the box on the right of the Discussions pages). Try using Disk Utility from the Installer menu of the Install disc to check the hard drive, as described in Using Disk Utility and fsck.
If the Mac boots from the Install disc, you can use your Tiger OS X Install disk to do an Archive and Install to reinstall the OS X System while retaining your user data and settings.
If that works, you can get the OS X updates not via Software Update but through the Downloads link at the top of the Discussions pages, searching for the stand-alone Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo for PPC (or Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo for Intel as the case may be). Note that the 10.4.6 update will restart the computer twice; this is expected. If your Mac is an Intel model, you may need to also refer to Firmware Restoration CD v 1.0.
I would certainly run Disk Utility> Repair Permissions while booted form the hard drive after you get things back up and running following the failed SU update.
Good luck! -

imac Mac OS X (10.3.9)
imac Mac OS X (10.3.9)Hi Maclapa!
Do you have more than one account on the Mac?
Are you sure that you are logged in with an Admin account?
Have you run Repair Permissions?
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
Rerun RP until the only message it reports is:
"We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./System/Library/Filesystems/cd9660.fs/cd9660.util.
New permissions are 33261"
This is a status message and not a cause for concern. You may safely ignore it.
Or these:
"We are using a special uid for the file or directory ./private/var/at/jobs. New uid is 1"
"We are using a special uid for the file or directory ./private/var/at/spool. New uid is 1"
Again, these are status messages, which appeared after Security Update 2005-001.
There may be others that you can ignore. Complete list at link below.

How to run robocode? Help me please
Hi everyone,
I try to develop java applets and programs for a software development course.
We have to work with the software called "Robocode" which a program about writing codes to see little robots fighting each other.
Actually my real problem is that when I launch the file robocode.command I just have an error message saying "The file “robocode.command” could not be executed because you do not have appropriate access privileges."
Did one of you ever met this type of problem? if yes help me please because even by creating a super user account nothing worked and to say the truth I'm really disappointed about that.
Thank you =)Actually my real problem is that when I launch the file robocode.command I just have an error message saying "The file “robocode.command” could not be executed because you do not have appropriate access privileges."
Under Mac OS X any file that ends with .command is assumed to be a double-clickable Unix shell script. However, the file needs to have the Unix execute permissions bit set.
Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
chmod +x robocode.command
I'm not sure any of the Apple discussion forum would be idea for discussing "RoboCode", however, the closest might be something like Mac OS X Technologies -> Software Development 101
<http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=728>
If there are Unix specific questions, such as setting the execute permission bit on robocode.command file, then the Unix forum would be the best place to ask

When I try and transfer my iphoto library from my computer to my harddrive, I keep getting error message "error-36". Can anyone help me please?
Odd, it seems. In the Finder "Get Info" display, you are seeing something like this?
Click the "Details" triangle and then the little padlock, and you should be able to change the permissions. Click the lock when you are done and close the Info window. -
I recently used an external hard drive to back up photos etc from my mac, I didn't do a full system back up. Since then a finder window titled 'client node' keeps popping up every time i hit the spacebar. Can anyone help me please stop this happening?
Click on it, choose Get Info from the File menu, and check the format.
If it's formatted as NTFS, reformat it as MS-DOS, exFAT, or Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as desired, or install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer.
If it's formatted as FAT32 or exFAT, use the Disk Utility's Repair Disk command on it; this may also happen for a flash drive which is about to fail.
If it's formatted as Mac OS Extended, click Authenticate and provide your administrator password, or change the permissions on that specific folder in its Get Info window.

after i upgrade to mavericks, every time i create folder or delete files, they keep asking me ti fill the password, but only on my finder? help me please Thank You
As a first step, open Disk Utility > select your hard drive > repair disk permissions.
