To check the default permission, we can use umask command in terminal. usmak (means user mask), is responsible for giving permissions to newly created files.
To check your default umask, do following steps:
1. Launch terminal
2. Type umask
3. Hit Enter.
If you see 0002 as output on the terminal, it means all new files are set with 664 permission (i.e. rw-rw----)
How umask code works:
rwx-rwx-rwx permission is known as 777 which gives read, write and execute access to all users
rw-rw-rw is known as 666 which gives only read and write access to all users.
r: read
w: write
x: execute
If you want to give rw-rw---- permission, it is chmod 664, so 666-664 = 002.
So if you have umask 0002 (ignore first 0), your creating new files with rw-rw---- permission.
how would you ensure that all ordinary files created by you have rw-rw---- as default persmissions?...
COSC 3411 /ITAP 3411 Homework (UNIX Shell Commands) How would you ensure that all ordinary files created by you have rw-rw---- as default permissions? How would you sort in the background a file called "bad.txt", and place the results in a file called "sort.txt"? Archive the contents of your home directory (including any subdirectories) using tar. Compress the tar archive with gzip. Now extract their contents. Use the “find” command to locate in /docs and /usr/docs all files that Begin...
Starting from the Linux default permission for file and directories, what umask would you use to ensure that for all new files, the owner would have read and execute; members of the group would have read, write and execute; and others would have execute?
Using Unix processes Submit a README file that lists the files you have submitted along with a one sentence explanation. Call it Prj1README. MakeCopy.c : Write a C program that makes a new copy of an existing file using system calls for file manipulation. The names of the two files and copy block sizes are to be specified as command line arguments. Open the source file in read only mode and destination file in read/write mode. ForkCopy.c : Write a...
Write a bash shell script, deleteFilesWithZeroLength.sh, that removes all zero length ordinary files in the directory passed as an optional argument. If you do not specify the directory argument, the script uses the present working directory as the default argument. Do appropriate exception handling in your script such as:If the arguments are more than 1, print out “Too many arguments passed”.If the argument passed is a regular file, print out “XXX is regular file”.1c. If the directory doesn’t exist, print out “Directory...

4. Given any directory, use the Is command to display: • all files and sub-directories starting with the letter "D" (note do not list anything in any sub-directory) • its immediate sub-directories (sub-directories only, and no other ordinary files) its immediate hidden sub-directories only - take a screenshot (#3-3) that clearly shows the command and the result. 5. Assume that the following files are in the working directory: $ ls intro notesb ref2 section 1 section3 section4b...
1. the commands you used to create the directories and files in Linux and Windows; 2. the commands you used to determine default permissions in Linux and Windows; 3. the commands you used to change permissions on your files in Linux and Windows; 4. a paragraph about how directories and file permissions work and what was the same or different between Windows and Linux.
Write a Bash script that removes all zero length ordinary files in the directory (including those in the sub-directories at all levels) passed as an optional argument. If you do not specify the directory argument, the script uses the current working directory as the default argument. This problem is for practicing bash programming skills. Though there is an easier way to achieve the goal with find, find is not allowed to appear in your bash script.
this is the code you should use from already existing shell i
