ssh and chmod
 
With chmod can you change all the subdirectories to and if so how? Can a user be in more then one group? Can a file have more then one group?

Now my ssh questions. I got the ssh daemon running but aparantly in need to have some form of key install and make some user for ssh. How would I go about doing that?

Welcome to LQ.

You can recursively chmod or chown using the "-R" switch.

A user can be in more than one group.

A file cannot normally have more than one group but you may want to look at extended attributes.

You can make public keys (I assume thats what you mean) using this tutorial:

Thank you I can't wait to get home to try making my public keys. I would do it remotely but I can't get into my ssh server:). I should have read the man page for chmod a little close:(. Thank you again.
