Hi all,
Anyone want to give me an explanation of the 'extended' permissions bits.
Such as
suid - program runs with root permissions?
guid - program runs with group permissions?
sticky - only original creator can delete? What about other members of the
group? What about root? Does this hold even if others have write access?
Are there other permissions (beyond the normal -rwxrwxrwx)?
What is the numeric abbreviation for these (eg chmod 0755 filename)?
Useful URLs just as welcome as a detailed response.
Thanks,
John MacLean
