Good day, curious why members of the same group can not chown/chmod files owned by the group ?
Example: Files are in /tmp and ls -ld on /tmp shows; drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Aug 3 12:16 /tmp These are the two files in /tmp. Different owners, same group. -rwxrwxr-x 1 user1 staff 499 Aug 3 12:08 df_k -rwxrwxr-x 1 user2 staff 12579 Aug 3 12:16 ps_ef When I execute chmod/chown I get this result; [EMAIL PROTECTED] 777 ps_ef chmod: changing permissions of `ps_ef': Operation not permitted [EMAIL PROTECTED] root:root ps_ef chown: changing ownership of `ps_ef': Operation not permitted [EMAIL PROTECTED] Any idea's why I am unable to do this ? Thanks for any assistance.
