Permisions, Ownership and group (General questions)

by Leonardo, Friday, March 11, 2005, 13:03 (7008 days ago)

Hi:

Is it possible for the uploaded files to set the following:

chmod 777 file
chown user file
chgrp grp file

I know that the chmod is possible via the SetPermisions method, what about the rest?

Thanks in advance
Leonardo

Leonardo,

use SetAttributes method to set all of that with one call.

Hi:

I have the following scenario...

I am uploading files as user a1.... and i want to change ownership of those files to user b1. Is this something possible using SetAttributes method?


Or is there a way that before uploading we can establish that information, allowing that when the files gets uploaded it already has the appropriate ownership/group.

Thanks

Leonardo

Forgot to mention that neither of the users have root privileges

Leonardo,

I don't think you can do that, this isn't wodSFTP limitation but UNIX security issue. Without root privileges you cannot change ownership like that.
