3_Ownership_and_permissions__Tellaccess

3. Ownership and permissions - Tellaccess

This is one of the things that I know is really important for Linux, but have never really understood. I have tried before but never been able to get the knowledge to stick, maybe because I didn't really care about security until now.

The ownership and permission system turned out to be really intuitive, and I was able to understand the basics from this one article. I later discovered this one from Linux Handbook which was more comprehensive.

For the project, I decided to create a program that tells you in human-readable form, the ownership and permissions of a file. I called the project tellaccess because it tells you who can access the file in what ways.
