How to make tar globbing work with the 'change directory' option Indeed, if results.a.log exists in the directory from which the script is run, it works. But I don't understand why this happens, since -C stands for change directory, so the current directory should be the one with results.a.log. I can't accept your answer because you don't offer a solution. |

Is there a reason why 'owner' permissions exist? Aren't group permissions enough? Excellent answer, and I enjoyed learning about older 'man's. However, I have some reservations about what you said. A simpler system, which can actually do almost (if not exactly) as much as ACLs, is let each of the 'rwx' permissions carry a group (rather than the other way around). That is, you'll have a read group, a write group and an execute group. If really needed for OS purposes, you can attach an owner to the file. That way you can also specify a special 'owner' group and an 'everyone' group. Other than hierarchy, I think this covers everything, including simplicity and orthogonality. |
