Question by Elliott: Is there a way to copy file permissions from one linux webhost account to a separate identical account?
I’m transferring my website from one webhost to another and i’m getting all kinds of file permission errors. Instead of going through every file and folder and match up the permissions, is there a way to copy files/folders AND their permissions from one web (ftp) account to another?

Right now I download the files from my old linux account to my windows local machine (where you lose file permissions), and then upload those permissions back to the new account.

if you are using a good ftp client, you should be able to chmod at the public_html level. So chmod 755 and it’s fine.

Or – if you are using ssh , do a recursive chmod like this :
$ chmod -R 755 public_html/

Answer by misz cami
Contact the domain registrar directly by doing a whois on the domain url. If you can supply the appropriate billing and contact info you should be able to transfer or renew the domain.

I don’t believe that you can transfer your Domain from one Yahoo! to another Yahoo!. I would contact Yahoo! first before you do anything.

4 How do I transfer my domain to a new registrar?
If you’d like to transfer your domain away from Yahoo!, we strongly recommend transferring your domain before you cancel. (Trust us, this will save you headaches in the long run.)

If you’re ready to transfer your domain:

Verify that it’s at least 60 days after your domain registration date.
In accordance with ICANN rules, you cannot transfer your domain to another provider until 60 days after your domain registration date.

Make sure your domain is unlocked.
For your security, locked domains cannot be transferred. If your domain is locked, visit your Domain Control Panel and click the “Edit Domain Locking” link. Learn more.

Check your administrative contact email address.
Your new provider will send an email to your domain administrative contact to confirm your domain transfer. If you can’t receive the confirmation, you won’t be able to complete the transfer! Learn how to update your contact information.

Get your authorization code.
To find your authorization code, head to your Domain Control Panel, and click the “View Your Authorization Code” link. On the following page, you’ll see your unique domain authorization code. Print this code, as you’ll need it to give to your new provider. Learn more.

Contact your new provider.
When you’re ready, contact your new provider to begin the transfer process. Be sure to have your authorization code handy, as your new provider will need it to verify the move.

Cancel your plan.
Once your transfer is complete, we’ll send you an email confirming the transfer (you can also check this status with your new provider — it should take about three days). When you receive this confirmation, you may cancel your plan. Note that Yahoo! does not automatically cancel your service when you transfer your domain.
Note: Some hosting providers cannot manage domain registrations. If you’d still like to use your domain with this kind of provider, you can redirect, or redelegate, your Yahoo! name servers to point to that provider. In this case, do not cancel your plan, as you’ll need it to continue managing your domain through Yahoo!; instead you may downgrade to a Yahoo! Domains plan.

Question by AlexPalmer: Can you get free web-hosting abilities with an Earthlink email account?
I’m trying to put a webpage online, but obviously it’s expensive through anyone. Can you get the web hosting free on Earthlink if you already have an email account which you pay for?
