Hello all, I'm having an issue with group permissions which I really find hard
to understand why. I have created a group called smbusers which I am a part of
by doing the following: # groupadd smbusers# usermod -G smbusers michael I then
created a directory called foodir, owned by adm with group smbusers and give
the following permissions to it: 770 I verify the permissions are correct and
are accessible by members of its group, but I cannot access the directory.
Everytime I try to cd into the directory, I get a permission denied error. It
is a group issue because when I change the permission to 777, I do have access.
Below is output I get from different commands: # groups michaelmichael:
michael, smbusers # groupsmichael adm #iduid=500(michael) gid=500(michael)
groups=4(adm), 500(michael) The /etc/group file shows I'm in the smbusers group
but does not show I'm in the adm group (although I believe I added myself to
the adm group when I installed the operating system). Clear
ly, I don't know what I'm doing and I am confused. Can anybody guide me to
where I need to go? Thanks,Michael
