Possible to use sudo definitions to override chmod value? Or use ACL?
by etcetera from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4YVC1)
this construct here doesn't override chmod permissions on /test folder, is there any /etc/sudoers definition that can?
username ALL = (root:root) NOPASSWD: /test
I realize that ACL is a great alternative and it works, kind of, in my case, but the files do not inherent the root folders ACL settings, that is, if a user creates a new file and puts it in /test, it no longer has the attributes of the folder it's in and the setfacl command has to be re-run. There has to be a better solution.
I don't want to set files to 770 and use group ownership to grant access. The folder in question is set to 711 which work for me.
