Re: File and directory permissions



OK thanks for the explanations.
To make sure:
1.) To prevent this scenario, I have to do recursive chown and chmod.
2.) If I chmod only /opt/experiment, there is absolutely no other way to access apple, other than an already open terminal.
Correct?

Addition to previous email:
Example:
In terminal B I can still modify a files as follows:
touch aaa
echo "123" > aaa
But when I do,
vi aaa
even in the same terminal, vi can't access the file aaa.

That's because vi probably converts the path to absolute before
trying to open it. It wouldn't need to, see the openat() system
call for how.

Cheers
