Talk:Unix Groups

need more info
The information provided here isn't sufficient for a unix ignoramus like myself. Firstly it doesn't make clear that you have to substiute in the chgrp statement. Secondly when one is talking about the admin login files on your website, one doesn't have home/user info - one just has a folder with maildir + logs + site.

What's needed is a clear step by step method of allowing other users access to all or limited sections of a website. Joly 13:00, 18 April 2008 (PDT)

I currently post large promotional image files (for printing) and various performance related documents, etc. (that I own all rights to), to a webfolder. This works well as it shows a default directory that automatically shows all files, and can be protected by password (though weakly), but I would like some options about the number of characters of the filename displayed, maybe font and formatting options. Long filenames with the same long prefix currently all look the same which is confusing to novice users.

What I also need is to allow myself and other more technical users to log into SFTP and upload documents to that webfolder (I suppose a PHP script to show links to the FTP folder could work). Linking an FTP folder to a web folder seems to be a pain, and I would like basic instructions to make it work... Fieldlab 23:30, 15 June 2012 (CDT)
