If you cannot access your hulk.osd.wednet.edu account because of a 403 error, follow the instructions in this video. You will use the “chmod” command to establish privileges to see your files from the Internet. It should fix the permissions. If you would like to learn more about the command line controls of your Hulk read about bash commands, http://www.ss64.com/bash/.

Scott, while 777 will fix the problem, it’s a little too insecure for my liking (and many linux users and school admins if they knew what that meant). Try 755, or 765 at the most. Most people should only need 755 unless they know specifically what they’re doing.
