I'm attempting to make a script that creates directories on a bsd
server.
#needs write privs to the server(for uploading from web)
/upload
#just write to owner
/htm
For the first, i'm using
owner - all privs = 07
group - read,write = 6
other - read = 4
Dir.mkdir('upload', 0764)
Which, when looking at with ls -al
shows
drwxr--r--
all privs to owner, read to group and nothing to other
This seems to work ok for files, just not dirs.
What mask do i need to allow the server to write to dirs??
//from doc
//Higher-order bits may also be used to indicate the type of file
(plain, //directory, pipe, socket, and so on)
What higher-order bits?
Someone clue me if you have a chance.
