what does putty's different text colors of files/folders mean & howto disable

[Geofrey Rainey]

The colours are determined by the file type and permissions.

I change the blue within Putty's "Window->color->ANSI Blue"
Settings.

Hi,

When I "ssh" into our Linux boxes using freeware putty,
when listing out files, some files are painted in red text,
some in blue text & white.

What does the color code mean & how can I change
them or disable them.  Blue is highly unreadable.

The very same putty ssh into Solaris & HP-UX boxes
doesn't give rise to these colors.


Thanks
U
