Specifying read on dir user?
If I have a number of users all in the same group. How do I give read only access to some of them on everyone elses home directory. Is it possible if they are all in the same group??
So
user1,2,3,4 can have read/execute on user1-5 home directory, but user5 can only read only have read user1-4

I am writing code to copy file if user dir exists.
Code snippet :
#!/bin/sh
if

cp ~user1/file file
else
cp ~user2/file file

OPTIONS
-d <directory>

-u <user or uid>
Set the user name files will be scanned as. This is mandatory, and it can't be "root".

pure-quotacheck -u john -d /home/john
AUTHORS
Frank DENIS <j at pureftpd dot org>
SECURITY
pure-quotacheck switches real and effective uids/gids as soon as possible. Root privileges are never given back.
pure-quotacheck refuses to scan directories with uid = 0 (root) or gid = 0 (wheel/root) .
pure-quotacheck performs a chroot() call to the home directory. It never traverses parent directories.
pure-quotacheck only scans real files (no socket, no pipe, etc) .
pure-quotacheck enforces read access on directories to prevent against people doing chmod 0 before a quota scan.
pure-quotacheck enforces write access on the home directory to properly write the .ftpquota file.
pure-quotacheck never scans the same inode/device pair twice.
