𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐱 𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬.... I attended an informative session run by Yacquub Adan earlier today about Linux file permissions and here are some of the points Every file or directory in Linux is tied to three types of owners: 📌 Owner – the user who created the file 📌 Group – a set of users who share the same access permissions 📌 Others – everyone else who isn’t the owner or part of the group There are three basic permissions you can assign: 1️⃣ Read (r) – allows viewing the contents of a file 2️⃣ Write (w) – allows modifying the file 3️⃣ Execute (x) – allows running the file as a program Credit ByteByteGo #linux #devops #tech

Rename a directory in Linux using the mv command. Key points: • mv is used for both moving and renaming • renaming = moving to a new name in the same location • supports relative and absolute paths Examples: • mv old_directory new_directory • mv /path/old /path/new • use quotes for spaces Tips: • use -i to prevent overwrite • use -v for verbose output Full guide 👉 https://lnkd.in/dVtVTuP8 #Linux #DevOps #SysAdmin #VSYSHost #CLI #Infrastructure

Curious—anyone else doing a monthly Linux self-assessment? Tracking my progress from basic terminal use to actually building and deploying real systems. It hits different when you treat Linux like an environment, not just a tool. Not perfect—but leveling up. If you’re doing the same, what are you measuring each month? 👉 Start here: https://lnkd.in/e4min8Hy #Linux #DevOps #SysAdmin #OpenSource #Fedora #Automation #TechGrowth #BayouFinds

Today I finally sat down and properly understood Linux permissions. I'd been cargo-culting chmod commands for a while without really knowing what the numbers meant. Turns out it's simpler than it looks: r = 4, w = 2, x = 1 — add them up for Owner, Group, and Others. That's it. chmod 750 means the owner gets full access, the group can read and run, and everyone else gets nothing. Once that clicked, everything else made sense. I wrote it up as a short note for myself — maybe it helps someone else too: 👉 https://lnkd.in/gpZNCGyN #Linux #LearningInPublic #TIL #DevOps

🚀 Linux recap – Day 2 🐧 It was all about users and permissions — something that looks simple but is actually very important. I went through how Linux manages users and groups, and how access is controlled for files and directories. Covered: - Users & groups basics - File permissions (read, write, execute) - Commands like "chmod", "chown" - Understanding ownership (user, group) - Basic idea of how permissions impact security At first, permissions looked confusing, but after practicing a bit, it started making sense. #Linux #DevOps #CloudLearning #LearningInPublic #LinuxBasics

Some Linux commands don’t look powerful… until you actually start using them These feel like small tricks, but they can seriously improve your workflow : 🔹 watch -n 2 df -h → Runs a command every 2 seconds (live monitoring) 🔹 alias cls='clear' → Creates your own custom shortcut command 🔹 !! → Repeats the last executed command 🔹 tac logfile → Displays file content in reverse order 🔹 yes "test" → Repeats a string continuously Not every useful command is complicated… sometimes the smallest ones feel like magic when you discover them #Linux #LinuxCommands #DevOps #SystemAdmin #Productivity
