Deek2 is on a distinguished road
For the chmod problem
Use this command:
chmod a+rwxs directory
Make sure you are set as root when doing this
Really, there are alot of uses for chmod
The first section, the a, is really just what kind of users are going to be affected by it (a=all)
The second set is merely an addition that sets the permissions for the defined user/s for the first section (since it's all users, all users will be affected by the permissions)
r: read
w: write
x: forgot
s: forgot
Really, reading the man page about the commands will be more easier to comprehend rather then my babbling.
