Hi,
I have a folder called /test and user called test. I want only user test should have rwx prmissions. How do I modify permission to a particular user to access a folder.
Thanks,
Dhanabalan.

This should do it:
| Code: |
chown test:users /test
chmod 700 /test
|
I'm also a fan of the Redhat way of "user group" where you create a group with
the same name as your user and make that your users primary group.
