Hi List;
I have 2 users which both have need to access various database related
files.I've created a new group called 'dba'. Most of the time I want
the users to create files with their default user:group perms, however
when I'm working on these sql / db files I want the files to be
created with the default user as the owner but dba as the group.
Is there a Linux command that will switch my primary group only until
I log out of a terminal or session ?
Thanks in advance...
Don't hijack the thread. If you have a new issue it is best to send
original email directly to fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx rather than respond to
another email message and change the subject.
From the command line you can use "newgrp gba". This will change the
primary group for the user in that session to "gba".
Take a look at "man newgrp" for more explanation.
I don't know if there is a way to do this from the GUI or not. I did
not find one in the short search I did.
