I want to setup an user SSH/telnet account with useradd. The user should have
- read-only permissions for ALL files on the server beginning with the root directory.
- write permission for recursively all files below the directory /user/home/newuser
How do I setup the account and the permissions correctly ?
That sounds like almost the default behaviour. Default install makes
lots of things executable by default, but trying to do root-ish things
results in failure because the things they try to do are not allowed
by permissions set on whatever they're trying to do it to. As a user,
I can /sbin/ifconfig, but try changing the routing table. You don't
have permissions for that.
