Modifying Site Command Properties

To view or change the properties for a SITE command:

  1. In the left pane of the WS_FTP Server Manager, expand the FTP host and then select Site Commands. The Site Commands list appears.
  2. Select the site command and click Edit. The Site Command dialog appears.

  1. Make changes to any of the properties.
Command. The name of the SITE command. This is also the command that is used to execute the program. This property cannot be changed.
Executable. The path and file name of the application that is run when the correct command is given. This can be changed by typing the full path and file name of the application, or by clicking the Browse (...) button and selecting the application from a browse dialog box.
Arguments. Number of available user-defined variables that can be used with the command (up to 5), as well as command line arguments.
Send Output. When this option is selected, all output generated by the server will be shown to the user as the command is executed. If the option is cleared, no output will be returned other than a success or failure message. Command variable errors will not be returned unless this option is selected.
Permissions. A list that displays which users are able to use the site command. Click Add to add new permissions. To delete a user's permission, select it in the list and click Remove.
  1. Click OK to save the changes.

Modifying Site Command Permissions

To control who can use a command:

  1. In the left pane of the WS_FTP Server Manager, expand the FTP host and then select Site Commands. The Site Commands list appears.
  2. Select the site command and click Edit. The Site Command dialog appears.

When the command was set up on the WS_FTP Server Manager, it automatically added an entry to the Permissions box that allows all users to use the command.

  1. If you want to change the permission, select the default permission value and click Remove. This will delete the permission.
  2. Click Add to view the Permissions properties.

  1. In the Permissions properties, associate the user or group of users with the appropriate access to the command. In the case of site commands, permission is either all or none.
  2. Click OK to add the user.
    Note: Permissions are used in the order in which they appear in the Permissions list. If a user appears at the top of the list, and that same user is below it in a group, the permissions set on the user will be used before the permissions for the group.
