how to install unzip on webserver
hi
i originally posted this under linux - newbies, but maybe it's better off here. the issue as i see it is probably not related specificaaly to freebsd, but rather to my lack of *nix knowledge
i host on a shared freebsd webserver. i am able to ftp a zip file onto the server, but do not know how to extract it.
there does not seem to be an unzip programme in the \bin directory, so i downloaded unzip from info-zip.org and was able to ftp it onto the server.
how do i go about installing it and running it on freebsd (i have not worked with any flavour of unix before).
the hosting co. does not provide telnet or ssh access. i can only use ftp, but when i use the command "unzip" through ftp this obviously does not work.
please help!
thanks
