Have you looked at ACLs? |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
getfacl |
| 14 |
setfacl etc? |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
They do provide more fine grained controls. Eg: file owned by root:root, |
| 17 |
but you want user "popeye" to be able to write to it. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
eg: setfacl -m u:popeye:rwx,u:oliveoil:r filename |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
rememeber to mount your dir with "acl" mount -o remount,acl /dev/hdX |
