Unix permissions for a newbie
Okay,
this may turn out to be something quite simple, but I haven't found the answer so far:
1) Is it possible to retrieve a list of user(ID) file permissions?
and then...
2) What is the most efficient way to create an alert/error message when/if those file permissions are denied? Would this require a simple Perl script, or something affiliated with ROOT?
Kinda itchin' to get this resolved as soon as possible.
I'll be happy to provide further information if necessary.
Thanks
