To make space, I want to move a couple of old backup
files, preferably as user btth rather than as root.
I want to move them from /home/btth to /opt -- and I'd
rather use the FC6 GUI method (in conjunction with the new Disk
Usage Analyzer in the FC6 Gnome GUI).
To do that that way, without logging out and then back in
as root, afaik, I need user btth to have permission to write to
/opt.
Since I rarely have occasion to change permissions, that
means slogging through *several* man pages that come up when you
tell Konqueror "man:chmod"
Ten to one there's an easier way. I'm thinking, for
instance, if I go into Users&Groups through the GUI, and add
btth to some group that has write permission to /opt, that might
do it -- maybe ..?? But what group??
