setting up stick bit on file/directory
 

Hi all,
Im kind of newbie on this.Can anyone show me how to set up a stick bit on AIX file/directory?
What effects does it have on files/directories when you set it as root/normal user?

Unless I'm mistaken, you're referring to the sticky bit (with a y). You can get a good mix of answers by googling for this:
Start with the widipedia search result, but some of the others are good too.

Hope this helps.

Answer
 

see the directory /tmp in all the AIX machines

rwx permission to all is given
Anybody can read write and execute.
Anybody can delete any file
chmod 0+t /tmp
is given as a protection that only the ownen can delete the files.

See it on ur system

Thanks AbrahamJose,
I got it.
