(Chilkat2-Python) chmod (Setting File Permissions)

This example assumes your FTP server supports the "chmod" command, which typically means it must be a server running on a Linux or Unix system. The SendCommand method may be called to send arbitrary commands to the FTP server. This example sends a "chmod" command to set the file permissions.

ftp.Hostname = "ftp.cknotes.com"

ftp.Password = "myPassword"

# Connect and login to the FTP server.
success = ftp.Connect()
if (success != True):
    print(ftp.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

# Send a chmod command to the FTP server to set
# the permissions of a file to 0644:
resp = ftp.SendCommand("chmod 0644 hamlet.xml")

if (ftp.LastMethodSuccess != True):
    # Failed.
    print(ftp.LastErrorText)
else:
    # You should write code to examine the response to
    # the SendCommand.  As an example, the FTP server
    # used for testing responds with this for success:
    # 200 Permissions changed on hamlet.xml
    print(resp)

success = ftp.Disconnect()
