[SOLVED] directory permission

mmdamin · 2019-03-28 08:02:12

Hello everyone
I have created a folder with fmask=012 and it's and its content is owned by root:mygroup.
I have added myself to that group 'usermod -aG mygroup mmdamin' then logged in again. After that I tried to get access to that directory but I get permission error.
As I give rw permission to that directory for mygroup and I'm in that group, I should be able to access to that directory, but I'm not.
EDIT: sudo ls -l shows all files are rwxrw-r--

"mygroup:root"

=> man chown - the order matters.

yes your right, i was writing this by hand so I got wrong
actually I used gid=1002 in fstab instead of chown.

Does the directory have the correct execute permissions for the group?

You need execute permissions on directories to enter them: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fi … ermissions
