View 2 Replies View RelatedThe desktop computer of my two children has a total of three users:
1) The superuser (me)
2) The user 1001 (my elder son)
3) The user 1002 (my younger son)
Both users 1001 and 1002 can not access their files system, and also they can not save any attachments from incoming mails.
What I tried so far:
I accessed the file manager as superuser, and went: >Root>Home. Here I right-clicked on the folder User 1001, selected properties, selected the tab 'permissions' and allowed this user to read and write into this folder. I also checked the checkbox �extend this permission to all subfolders and its contents.
The problem is, when I reboot, everything is 'forgotten' and I am at quadrant zero again.
Eventually I should state that part of the folders are from a backup drive, because the hard disk had to be replaced so, once I re-installed the OS on the new hard drive, I copied the folders from the backup drive into the home folder.
One last question:
Is there a good tutorial about permissions?

View 5 Replies View RelatedHow can I give www-data permission to use sudo? I used to assign permission to users to use sudo using KDE but don't know how to do it on a headless server.Basicly I have a web application running that wants to call a command that needs root privs. When it calls this command it's running as www-data. I guess it's not working as www-data is not allowed to use sudo. If it can use sudo I could for example...Code:echo "password" | sudo -S "some admin command here"I could be wrong but i'm petty sure I just need to give www-data permission to use sudo?

If I'm logged out I'm obviously not using it. So why doesn't it show up? He has all privileges. Is there a way to make this work without having to unmount?
