DISQUS

Denarius · 4 years ago

Unices and applications use the setgid and setuid bits so the octal may need to be 4 digits, especially if using UniCenter or AIX.
AIX directories often have setgid set sometimes.

Using chmod 0755 or 0750 if hardening is needed.
remove setgid from dir with symbolic representaion
drwxrws--- ie in octal 2750 change to safer nonsetgid
drwxrwx--- ie in octal 0750
with
chmod 0750 dirname

Usual ownership requirements apply.
Note it is possible to get uppercase S appearing in ls -l output if setgid is set but no execute permissions are set. it means setgid is ineffective.
