QT: How do I put text into a text file on the web (this is just too easy but can't get it to work)

[Mark Schonewille]

William,

If you're simply trying to upload a file, it has nothing to do with  
CHMOD and uploaded files automatically get the right persmissions,  
unless it is an executable. Why do you think it has to do with CHMOD?

  I'd rather think that you have a router and/or firewall that's  
causing problems. Make sure that port 21 is open and use

libURLSetFTPMode "passive"

Actually, I have some problems with FTP myself, using the Tiger  
firewall and shared internet, even if I use passive FTP (regardless of  
whether I use Revolution or any other programme). So, I'm not sure the  
solution is obvious, but let's hope someone else on this list dealt  
with the problem before. The easiest way would probably be to (be able  
to) open all outgoing ports.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
