I am following a serverfault response (skip to "You can have your cake and eat it too") about website permissions, and I can't get folder permissions 570 to work as expected. I have verified I'm a member of the group and permissions are 570, but I can't even access the directory.
Here is an example of what I'm trying to do:
mkdir newfolder
chown lesseruser newfolder
chgrp greaterusers newfolder
chmod 570 newfolder
I am a member of greaterusers (verified in /etc/group) and I cannot access the directory.
Output ll: dr-xrwx--- 2 lesseruser greaterusers
Will wonders never cease. I just rebooted the server and everything works as expected. Strange, but for sure I'll reboot the next time before posting. Thanks for the help.
group
command show that this user is also in greatusers? Also please confirm that the commandid
also shows the group greatusers too.
