I believe this are some problems with lynx while
ran in the vsd as admin. From all the testing I have done has revealed this.
When you are logged in as admin to the vsd and lynx to a website to download a
file, the file is downloaded as being root owned with, admin as the
group.
Downloaded link: ftp://ftp.yars.free.net/pub/software/unix/net/ftp/client/lftp/lftp-2.4.1.lsm
Suggested file name: lftp-2.4.1.lsm [admin@testvsd test]$ ls -al
total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 admin admin 4096 Aug 21 14:05 . drwxr-xr-x 5 admin admin 4096 Aug 21 14:04 .. -rw------- 1 root admin 1376 Aug 21 14:05 lftp-2.4.1.lsm So basically now that the file is there you can not
touch it sense admin has no privileges to this.
[admin@testvsd test]$ rm lftp-2.4.1.lsm
rm: lftp-2.4.1.lsm: permission denied: Numerical result out of range [admin@testvsd test]$ cat lftp-2.4.1.lsm
cat: lftp-2.4.1.lsm: Permission denied The one other big problem with lynx is that even
though its writing as root to the file, it does not understand any other
privileges. To be able to download a file you must be in a directory owned by
admin, meaning if your in /home/nut/
With a directory structure like this
drwxr-xr-x 4
nut
nut 4096 Aug 21 14:08
.
drwxr-xr-x 8 admin admin 4096 Aug 21 13:45 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 nut nut 4096 Aug 17 15:56 doc drwxr-xr-x 4 nut nut 4096 Aug 17 15:57 www And you try to download something your going to get
a
Alert!: Cannot write to file.
Its not understanding that admin has higher
privileges then nut. Any help on these couple problems would be appreciated.
Thanks
