acl[0] would do the job nicely, just make sure the filesystem in question is mounted with the acl option then, a user experiencing problems can give the scientist account temporary permissions. ```shell setfacl -R -m u:scientist:rwx ~/project_data ``` After the problem is fixed the user can revoke the permissions to keep the home directory secure. ```shell setfacl -x u:scientist: ~/project_data ``` Examples nearly copied from: http://www.vanemery.com/Linux/ACL/linux-acl.html 0: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Access_Control_Lists
