I NEED HELP!
voidmain:
The book wasn't titled "VoidMain's Registry Tricks for Dummies" was it?
Master of Reality:
i dont think i would be using a book on the registry, if i'm using linux....i think its called "the acid linux revolution"
Master of Reality:
this book i have explains permissions, but doesnt tell me the command to change permissions.
It tells me that after the command i use things like: dr-x----.
so, what is the command for setting user permissions?
voidmain:
The command is "chmod" (see: man chmod). You can also do it from the Konqueror file manager (right click->properties->permissions), although I don't believe I have *ever* used konqueror to change file permissions. If you have any questions about chmod or are confused by the man page I can describe it in detail that may help you understand it a little better. Sometimes the man pages are a little light.
Calum:
VoidMain, maybe that permissions thing you are thinking of posting for us newbies could be submitted as a feature article when you get round to it?
I am still a little shaky on permissions (although your reply was very informative last time i asked about it), and i think a lot of new linuxers will want to read your proposed article, so maybe it should be a feature article rather than get lost in the backlog swamp of the forums after a couple of weeks...
