Hi all,
I've got a question for you all:
If a directory has permissions like: rwx-rx-r, and a file in that
directory is: rwx-rwx-rwx, cat it be removed by another user than the
directory's owner? It doesn't sound very normal to me, because he doesn't
have permissions to write in that directory. But the experience tells me
something different.
You probably wonder why I ask this... Well, I want to allow the users to
mkdir in their own directories, and other users to browse their
directories(r & x, I think), but to forbid somebody rm-ing something from
somebody's else directory.
The users acces their directories by ftp, do some 'put', and then leave.
But 'put' gives this permissions: rwx-rwx-r. Other user can make 'ftp' in
the same way, cd to the first user's directory, and then do a 'rm'.
Nothing is going to stop him, even if he doesn't have writing permissions
in somebody's else directory...
Please help, I'm in desperate need of a solution...
Have fun,
bogdan
