On 2001-09-25, brain_damaged scribbled: # this is confusing to me. # when setting permissions to file/directoreis etc # and using the 775 or whatver number how do you know if a user, group # or owner is accessing the file or directory ? You can always use the [ugo] +/- [rwx] method to apply permissions. If you want the owner to have read/write/exec permissions, do: chmod u+rwx filename g is the group associated to the file, o is for other users/groups r is read, w is write, x is execute Try the man page for chmod for more information. # is the a good chmod for dummies ? # and what is the differences between # chmod # chroot # chown chmod is change mode/permissions chroot is change root (for more information, check the man page) chown is change owner. -- Linh Pham [lplist@closedsrc.org] // 404b - Brain not found To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
