    This series doesn't feel like a crash course. It feels like the real effing deal. Thanks

    Hands down one of the best explanations on file permissions I've found on RUclips 👐🏾. I initially had a problem with using the octal notation to change file permissions but your explanation made everything so clear. Thanks a lot for this great learning resource 👏🏾

    As someone who has been learning linux trying to understand the linux filesystem has been hard especially coming from a windows background. Network chuck just dropped a video on this very subject and now you, awesome 👌

    I’ve been using Linux for quite a while. Nothing too extensive - just home use for a media server and file share server. I’ve seen a lot of videos. This is one of the best I’ve seen. To-the-point, clear explanation and informative. Great job.

    Thank you so much, Jay. Fantastic video.Would like to see more about the SGID and SUID permissions and umask and maybe a sticky bit as well.

  • @chefsalat
    @chefsalat 9 месяцев назад

    I am very impressed by the way you teach these topics.
    would be also interesting to learn more about attributes / capabilities, as far as I understand, devs are held to replace the usage of the setuid permission and to switch to capabilities instead.

    I have been using Linux for two decades now. I still like watching your videos in case I have omitted something in my education. Lo and behold at the very end of this video, you taught me about chown $USER:
    I never knew I could have a naked colon and it would use the user's default group. Thank you for all of your videos.

    Hay JaY! I struggle with this all the time so I keep a cheat sheet with some of this printed out. Although I have watched others explain this topic I will say you did a better way for me to understand it a bit better... :-)
    So thank for that. Did know about the -R for files but did not know you could use on a directory like that... :-D Cool!
    So Thanks for the video!

  • @trickvro
    @trickvro Год назад

    Is there an actual use case for those odd permissions (like being able to write but not read)? It seems to me like permissions should be hierarchical. Like, being able to write to a file should necessarily mean you can also read it. Or being able to read the contents of a directory implies being able to access it. Are counterintuitive permissions just a quirk of how chmod was written that can't be changed now, or do they exist for a reason?
