'nobody' and the Joomla file permission problem

[tsun]

fantastic, thats great, thanks colin, do you need anything from me?

[Colin]

Thats the ownership chnaged to your username so you will be able to make updates/delete/whatever as long as you use the FTP part

Thanks Colin, i can make the edits now without a problem :-)

I can see where I was going wrong in trying to enable to ftp layer now - I was using a host name and not the localhost.

Now to grovel to Colin and Drew to get the permissions changed on the account :P
