Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: how to make a file writable by anybody?
When I was first taught about changing UNIX file permissions they taught me
to use numbers rather than the letter method. With that in mind, there are
3 portions (owner, group and world). Permissions are granted in binary
(read=4, write=2 and execute=1). So to give everyone write access you
could use:
chmod 666 file_name which results in '-rw-rw-rw-' permissions.

Hi all,
How to make a Unix file writable by anybody? The file should be owned by dba, but also writable by non-dbas.
-rw-rw-rw- 1 jcsora dba 0 May 21 16:00
dbbackup_sched.dat
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jcsora dba 0 May 21 16:01
del_base_sched.dat
Currently dbbackup_sched.dat file can be written by tester and other people, I'd like to make del_base_sched.dat the same thing. After I did chmod +w del_base_sched.dat, it only changes the 6th character to be w, but not the 9th.
Thanks, Andrea
