Uploading non jpg type files

Good Morning,

I am trying to upload a .pub file to my dnn install and am getting the following error:

"The File D:\Intranet2\nuke\Portals\0\With Compliments Slip (v3).pub Is A Restricted File Type. Valid File Types Include ( *. swf, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.jpe, *.gif, *.bmp, *.png, *.doc, *.xls, *.ppt, *.pdf, *.txt, *.xml, *.xsl, *.css, *.zip ). Please Contact Your Hosting Provider If You Need To Upload A File Type Which Is Not Supported."

Is there any way I can upload restricted files?

Many Thanks,

Ghostie

Easy - you need to access the Host/Settings and down the page will be the options on what file formats to allow -

This will allow you to upload the restricted files.

Are you logged in as host or admin? You need to be logged in as host to make these changes since they affect the whole portal.

Do you have host access? If not, you can't make this change.
