Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers What's the difference between rwxrwSr-x and rwxrwsr-x? Post 302231862 by Perderabo on Wednesday 3rd of September 2008 09:59:47 AM

I spent quite a bit of time on that article and I'm dismayed that you dismiss it with a comment like "The article did NOT answer my question". When you phrase a question like "If the file's execute bit is off", I have to think that that a rereading of my article might be useful. There are three execute bits, not one, and you do not have a case where all three are off. The section "Useless Bit Combination" discusses your question in some depth and none of the files in that section are owned by root. Suid works fine with non-root users, but none of the examples in your questions had anything to do suid. Your examples are sgid, not suid.

NAME
cvtbatch - Convert Usenet batch files to INN format SYNOPSIS
cvtbatch [-w items] DESCRIPTION
cvtbatch reads standard input as a sequence of lines, converts each line, and writes it to standard output. It is used to convert simple batch files that contain just the storage API token of an article to INN batch files that contain additional information about each article. Each line is taken as a storage API token indicating a Usenet article. Only the first word of each line is parsed; anything following whitespace is ignored. Lines not starting with a valid token are also silently ignored. If the input file consists of a series of message-IDs, then use grephistory with the -s flag piped into cvtbatch. OPTIONS
-w items The -w flag specifies how each output line should be written. The items for this flag should be chosen from the "W" flag items as specified in newsfeeds(5). They may be chosen from the following set: b Size of the article in bytes. f Storage API token of the article (same as "n"). m Article message-ID. n Storage API token of the article. t Arrival time of the article as seconds since epoch. The default is "nm", that is to say the storage API token followed by the message-ID of the article. HISTORY
