users, passes, htacces (PLESK 7.5)

[vossli]

Hallo!
i am quite new to server administration. I have Plesk 7.5 and want to create many permissions for folders, but it takes almost half an hour to make 50 entries for the same user
The same thing when i have to remove the user again.. >_<
Is there a way to accelerate this procedure?

I am managing just a VServer via browser access from a PC (Windows). I was advised to use the command line, unfortunately i cant find it.

Thanks!

Are you using Plesk for Windows or for Linux?

Hi

i am using PLESK for Unix. But i think it will take much time anyway when i use Plesk for creating protected folders.
Instead i would rather use FTP to upload the htaccess to many folders simultanously.
Does anybody know of an FTP client that supports such a feature?

Thanks!

Upload using the command-line?

ftp -i ftp.google.nl
user
google
password2120

put .htaccess dir1/.htaccess
put .htaccess dir2/.htaccess
put .htaccess dir3/.htaccess
etc....

You'd do best just to upload this .htaccess file to every directory manually via FTP, rather than using the "Protected Directories" feature of Plesk. Shouldn't be too much work.
