Folder permissions - securing the file system

Discussion in 'Site Programming, Development and Design' started by itguy, Nov 20, 2010.

  1. Hello!

    I have just (successfully) transferred a MojoPortal Site from a local server to Winhost. I am now in the process of securing the site as per MojoPortal instructions:

    One of the major thigns I must do, according to http://www.mojoportal.com/securing-the-file-system.aspx is to secure the file system.

    What needs to be done (and the way I did it on my local server) is to make sure that only 2 folders are writable by the web process. I have set up IIS7 Manager access to my Winhost site, but I cannot see how to tamper with folder or file level permissions. Can you please help?

    Regards

    Andreas

    The permission you are looking for should already be set by default. What is the exact error you are getting?
