<brobostigon> afternoonings all.
<brobostigon> how do i change a root owned folder, so i can access it aswell asread and write to said folder, from or as a normaluser, please.
<brobostigon> ie /mnt/*
<BigRedS> brobostigon: chmod 666 <file>?
<moreati> brobostigon: You either take ownership of the folder, change the group of the folder to one you're a member of and make it group writable, or you make it world writable
<BigRedS> er <directory>
<moreati> chmod 666 is the third option
<brobostigon> cheers BigRedS and moreati :)
<BigRedS> note that with directories, execute rights are really list-contents rights
<brobostigon> hmm.
<moreati> brobostigon: not that making things world writable is usually poor practise in a shared environment like a server, but if it's your own machine then whatever..
<moreati> *note
<brobostigon> ok, so, chmod 666, and then, chmod +rw?
<BigRedS> chmod 666 is chmdo +rw, they're two ways of denoting the same
<BigRedS> well, teh former states where to end up and the latter states thechange to make. but chances are it'll be at 666. The only right missing with chmod 666 is execute
<moreati> brobostigon: the other approach is sudo chown <user>:<group> <folder>
<BigRedS>...which you'd normally want in a directory
<brobostigon> hmm, ok,
<Laney> ugo=rw
