Subject: Permissions, F-16 -
Would someone explain the meaning of the permissions in the last
line below, especially the "+" ?
[root@box6 bobg]# ll /dev/bus/usb/001
total 0
crw-rw-r--. 1 root root 189, 0 Feb 28 03:08 001
crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root 189, 2 Feb 28 03:08 003
I understand read, write, and execute, and generally set them
with the values of 4, 2, and 1, but the --. and the --+ don't
seem to be covered in anything I've "googled." "d" for
directory, but "c" ?
Thanks,
Bob
The c means it's a character special device (or file. ) Possibly a scanner connected
via USB?
The + means there are ACL's in affect for it
--

Thanks for the information.
With that and Google I can at least work around my scanner user
problem.
[root@box6 bobg]# setfacl -m u:bobg:rw- /dev/bus/usb/001/003
I know that will change on reboot, etc. But it's a start.
