Check the permissions of a user
Users enter a user and a path to the directory.
Returns the result is the child folders and files in the folder the user to enter and rights that
that user on the directory.
for example:
suppose we have the Public folder as follows:
If user enter:
-Kenshin
or /home/kenshin/Public
output:
Code:
abc: kenshin: rw
my shell:
Code:
echo "Enter User:" read user grep "$user" /etc/group
but not very feasible, one can help me, help me plzzz, thank very much
What I need to do is: I need to use the grep command to search for pattern in directory and sub-directories. And also I need to show the permission of file been seached by the grep command.
Could any one please suggest me?
