I'm trying to set up a folder in my home directory that will be shared with another user but for some reason it is not working this is what I've done, I have tried two different ways using ACL's and chown/chgrp etc
I set up a group called say: sharedgroup and added both my user (john) and fred to it so when I run
Code:
groups john
john wheel sharedgroup
groups fred
sharedgroup fred
mkdir /home/john/shared
vim /home/john/shared/hello.txt (typed in some text saved it)
chown -R :sharedgroup shared
chmod -R o=-rwx shared
ll
drwxrwx--- 2 john sharedgroup 4096 Sep 9 21:14 shared
ll shared
-rw-rw-r-- 1 john sharedgroup 7 Sep 9 21:14 hello.txt
(I also tried adding in the s permissions but that didn't help either)
then when I log out of the server and log back in as fred and try these commands they fail
Code:
vim /home/john/shared/hello.txt (won't allow me to write opens a blank file)
cd /home/john/shared
PERMISSION DENIED
ls /home/john/shared
PERMISSION DENIED
Any idea what I'm doing wrong??

doveadm-user
DOVEADM-USER(1) Dovecot DOVEADM-USER(1)NAME
doveadm-user - Perform a user lookup in Dovecot's userdbs
SYNOPSIS
doveadm [-Dv] user [-a userdb_socket_path] [-f field] [-x auth_info] user ...
DESCRIPTION
The user command is used to perform a user lookup - to show what information Dovecot sees about the user(s), or if it exists at all in the
configured userdb(s).
The auth_info may be useful when the userdb is for example a SQL database and you are using %variables, like %s or %l, in the user_query
setting. Or when you have configured the userdb in a way like this:
userdb {
driver = passwd-file
args = /etc/%s.passwd
}
OPTIONS
Global doveadm(1) options:
-D Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-v Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
Command specific options:
-a userdb_socket_path
This option is used to specify an absolute path to an alternative UNIX domain socket.
By default doveadm(1) will use the socket /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb. The socket may be located in another directory, when the
default base_dir setting was overridden in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.
-f field
When this option and the name of a userdb field is given, doveadm(1) will show only the value of the specified field.
-x auth_info
auth_info specifies additional conditions for the user command. The auth_info option string has to be given as name=value pair.
For multiple conditions the -x option could be supplied multiple times.
Possible names for the auth_info are:
service
The service for which the userdb lookup should be tested. The value may be the name of a service, commonly used with Dove-
cot. For example: imap, pop3 or smtp.
lip The local IP address (server) for the test.
rip The remote IP address (client) for the test.
lport The local port, e.g. 143
rport The remote port, e.g. 24567
ARGUMENTS
user Is a user's login name. Depending on the configuration, a login name may be for example jane or john@example.com. It's also possi-
ble to use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u *@example.org).
EXAMPLE
Perform a user lookup for the users jane and john@example.com.
doveadm user jane john@example.com
userdb: jane
uid : 8001
gid : 8001
home : /home/jane
mail : sdbox:~/sdbox
plugins : sieve
quota_rule: *:storage=150M
userdb: john@example.com
home : /srv/mail/8/70312/79832
uid : 79832
gid : 70312
mail : mdbox:~/mdbox
The next example shows a user lookup, using wildcards.
doveadm user *.?oe@example.net
jane.doe@example.net
judy.roe@example.net
john.doe@example.net
