Hi How do enable members of a UNIX group to have write access to shared GRASS locations/mapsets from GRASS?
To check if that's possible with umask, I do: $ umask 6 $ grass63 (setup new location, create mapsets) The location and mapsets directories are created with 771 rights. The dbf subdir too. WIND, DEFAULT_WIND, MYNAME, .gislock and .bashrc files are created with 660. Good. But, any newly created mapset elements (subdirs for vectors, raster etc.) still have only read access for the group. Do GRASS commands ignore umask setting? Sidenote: I know I also need to modify the rights check in G__mapset_permissions() and G__mapset_permissions2() in lib/gis/mapset_msc.c so that users were able to modify mapsets they don't own. This is already done. Maciek _______________________________________________ grassuser mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grassuser
