[cod] Need Help

[Steve Chestnut]

If you have SFTP access to the install, a gui util such as WinSCP will allow you to access the directory containing the lnxded file. You will want to set the permission based on who you want to be able to execute it. With SFTP access and WinSCP, it's as simple as right clicking on the file and setting the execute value to owner, group and/or other.

If you are using a command line interface utility, you would want to set the octal value using the chmod command. A good general reference and explanation can be found here: http://www.ss64.com/bash/chmod.html . 

Feel free to email me directly if you still have problems.

  No not sure how to set the permission on that file from inside the linux.  Plus I don't know excatly what I should be looking for to change in that file.

      Guys I have just moved all needed files onto my co located linux box and have the biniaries and cfg file loaded.  For some reason when I type in ./cod2_lnxded +set +exec dedicaded.cfg I get and ./cod2_lnxded: Permission denied.  Need some help since I am not the best at linux, any other information needed just let me know.
