 |
|
When uploading the .htaccess & .procmailrc files using FTP Client(FlashFXP) these 2 files are not visible in the file list... is this normal?
And are these 2 files plus recmail.pl all stored in the same location on the webserver as the other webpage files  Thankyou 4 any replies  |

Files beginning with a . such as .htaccess and .procmailrc are traditionally not displayed when browsing a UNIX file system. With ls for instance you would have to give the switch -a to display them. I didn't know FTP programs also honoured this. If you need to FTP the files you should however be able to specify the files anyway unless your FTP program is strictly grafical. Check for some option "show hidden files" or similar.
The .htaccess file is to go in the web directory together with all the PHP-files and the .procmailrc is to go in the email user you create to receive all unrouted emails in the system, such as the user peffisaur for instance which is mentioned in the documentation (you also place the recmail.pl there). |
