  • Does your system use LDAP for its group memberships? Have you looked at the chmod and chgrp commands?

The rcars directory will first need to be part of rcars group (the folder's owner or root can perform this operation).



Syntax: chgrp <groupName> -R <folderName>



 chgrp rcars -R rcars


Then, the rcars group will need rw permissions of the directory.



Syntax:chmod g+rw <folderName>



 chmod g+rw -R rcars


To remove others access:



chmod o-rw -R rcars



  • -R is for recursive permission (all sub-directories and files in it).
