Ok, I know these are probably annoying to answer... but here I go.

Below is my setup:

FTP Server w/ these users:
webuser (home = /var/www)
joer (home = /home/joer)

What' I'm trying to do, is have webuser have Read,Write, Execute permission. But I also want joer to have Read, Write and Execute permission.

I know I can simply do this:

Which will give webuser ownership of the file, so it can manipulate those files. But takes away joer from having permission

Why I need joer to have write, read, execute permission? Because, there is a perl script I use under joer, and it needs access to /var/www

Also for more information:

joer belongs to group joer
webuser belongs to group joer (it used to be www-data, i just changed it thinking this would work... it didnt)

Hopefully this makes sense.

Thanks =)

I don't wanna sound dumb, but I will anyway. Can you please elaborate without giving me a link to permissions. I could have just googled that.

But I don't really see how to have another user having RWX permissions. Maybe it's the night and I don't wanna think.

Hopefully some guidence besides a link would be more assistance. Unless your gonna give me a link with where to look...

Considering how quick you replied, I am assuming you didn't even read that guide.

Now, someone else may come along and spoon feed you, but not I. In fact, you should read:

LQ Rules

• Do not expect LQ members to do your homework - you will learn much more by doing it yourself.

and

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way

then

read the guide I posted, and try it on your own.

Post back what you did, and if you fixed it or still have a problem.

That will earn the respect of those who have the knowledge you
desire, and they'll be more apt to help you along.

who said it's homework... school's not even in session you crazy nut.

Yeah, I skimmed through the site... what's wrong with that.

You're mighty fisty, hope your taking proper medication.

It's midnight, I'd figure I'd get a nice answer quick and easy... instead of researching it. Sorry if that's so-called cheating... but I'm not being graded on this. Goodness!

If I wanna use Unix as my primary system, maybe I'd invest more time into it.

most ppl on the forum wont help you if you dont help yourself and for good reason. as for calling someone that helps you a name or 2 isnt right and i can petty much garentee that fi someone reads ur last post they wont help you.

I already solved my own problem...

I don't see what was wrong with my last post, it was in my defense. I believe I'm entitled to that.

Don't respond back.
