How do i set permissions for other folders?
I have few directores inside a folder like below -
teckapp@machineA:/opt/keeper$ ls -ltrh
total 8.0K
drwxr-xr-x 10 teckapp cloudmgr 4.0K Feb 9 10:22 keeper-3.4.6
drwxr-xr-x 3 teckapp cloudmgr 4.0K Feb 12 01:44 data
I have some other folder as well in some other machines for which I need to change the permission to the above one like this drwxr-xr-x
.
Meaning how can I change any folder permissions to drwxr-xr-x
? I know I need to use chmod
command with this but what should be the value with chown that I should use for this?
Best Answer
To apply those permissions to a directory
chmod 755 directory_name
To apply to all directories within the current directory
chmod 755 */
If you want to modify all directories and subdirectories, you'll need to combine find with chmod .
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} +
