chmod (permissions) * not working on remote server
Hi gurus !
I am developing a FTP script which will copy all the files from one server to another server and then I need to use CHMOD 755 * to set permissions of all the files just copied to the remote server.
mput *
chmod 755 *
CHMOD gives me an error [ *: No such file or directory ]
CHMOD works fine If I specify the full file name instead, any help????
Thanks

SYNOPSIS
bool ftp_site (resource $ftp_stream, string $command)

membership.
PARAMETERS
o $ftp_stream
- The link identifier of the FTP connection.
o $command

EXAMPLES
Example #1
Sending a SITE command to an ftp server
<?php
// Connect to FTP server
$conn = ftp_connect('ftp.example.com');
if (!$conn) die('Unable to connect to ftp.example.com');
// Login as "user" with password "pass"
if (!ftp_login($conn, 'user', 'pass')) die('Error logging into ftp.example.com');
// Issue: "SITE CHMOD 0600 /home/user/privatefile" command to ftp server
if (ftp_site($conn, 'CHMOD 0600 /home/user/privatefile')) {
echo "Command executed successfully.
";
} else {
