Is it possible to CHMOD with my FTP program on localhost (Windows XP Home)?



A couple of my content management programs require me to CHMOD 777 and my
WS_FTP95 won't do it, claiming that it is UNIX-only. Is there any other way
to set file/folder permissions in Windows XP Home?



Thanks
 
Windows XP does not have a CHMOD option or command.
You'll need a third-party program, such as:

AceFTP

LeapFTP

Ipswitch WS_FTP Professional
