Granting Permission
I have a game (Wolfenstein Enemy Territory) and I need to be able to download new maps for this game but I don't know how to grant my user account the permission to write files to the directory they need to go in. How do I grant my account permission to write to the directory /usr/local/game/enemy-territory/etmain? I am running Mandrake 10.1 official.

you can either "chown" the directory to your user, "chgrp" the directory to your group id and allow group write on the directory (chmod g+w /usr/local/game/enemy-territory/etmain) or you can "chmod 777" the directory and allow anything to everyone :-)
for more infos read: man chmod, amdn chown, man chgrp |
Code:
chmod 777 /usr/local/game/enemy-territory/etmain |
Thanks for the help.
