Hi

Please bear with me... I'm learning!

I need to change some settings in php.ini for a file uploader script to work. My host told me to connect to my home directory using Putty, and if there is no php.ini file there, create one.

I've got connected to my webspace via Putty, but not sure how to create php.ini there. Does it have to be in a particular location (the file list looks the same as when I connect with FTP - no different directories or /usr/ directory or anything)? I assume it needs to be same version as PHP installed on hosts (1&1) server?

Any suggestions welcomed!

Thanks, Jason
