I have a scripted circumstance where a user account X on server A needs to be able to scp a file to server B in another user Y's home directory.
Doing the following enabled this to work. On server B, I logged in first as root, then su - usery (User Y) then ran the following to alter the ACLs for the directory. su - root su - usery /usr/bin/chmod A+user:userx:read_data/list_directory/write_data/delete/add_file/append_data/add_subdirectory:allow ~/* Now user X can transfer the file. As long as the file on Server B is owned by User X, no problem. But if the file being transferred is an overwrite of a file that already exists which is owned by User Y, the transfer will (obviously) fail with permission denied due to the file ownership. So the question is, is there a ACL permission I'm missing that will allow User X to always be able to overwrite an existing file in the directory regardless of which user owns the file? I tried delete_child but that did not help.
