Re: [CentOS] Antwort: umask not functioning with cp command

2010-06-23 Thread James Corteciano 
Hi Andreas,

I try the following command and the test/content directory is still in 755
mode.

$ cp -a -dpR content/ test/
$ ls -l test/
drwxr-sr-x 2 user user 4096 Jun 23 19:28 content

Regards,
James

  [CentOS] umask not functioning with cp command
 
  Hi all,
 
  $ umask 0002
  $ mkdir test
  $ ls -ld test
  drwxrwxr-x 2 user user 4096 Jun 23 19:04 test/
 
  $ls -ld content
  drwxr-xr-x 2 user user 4096 Jun 23 19:29 content
 
  $ cp -r content test/
  $ls -ld test/content
  drwxr-xr-x 2 user user 4096 Jun 23 19:29 content
 
  My question is, how can I make content directory permission mode to
  775 if I do cp inside the test directory?
 
  Thanks.
 
  Regards,
  James

 Hi James,
 in this case, you must copy with cp -p (or better -a same -dpR) to preserve
 all atributes.

 man cp

 man cp

-p preserves the source permissions...
In this case, he wants the target directory to inherit its permissions from its 
parent...
And I think Unix doesn't support the idea of inherited permissions (except for 
the sgid bit).
Is running a simple 'chmod 775 test/content', after the cp, not an option...?
