Thanks for reply, Let me again try to explain more about the issue,

With the 'ram' user only we all dba login and do our dba administration activity.

now let take if we are 5 dba in that any one of dba unfortunately fire "chmod * .txt" command under /home/ram directory where those 4 txt file exist.

now in this case what would happen, all user,group members have read,write,execution privilege.

I am looking for any script which execute in regular interval time frame by crone job schedule and check in case those .txt file found with any other permission then other dba can able to get an alert immediately so DBA could able to take appropriate action ASAP.

Regards,

---------- Post updated at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous update was at 04:34 PM ----------

it my understanding, I am thinking like lets make a kind of shell script which can monitor those 4 file by cron job, in case if some change permission, we could minimum able to get email alert, so we could able to take appropriate action.

Looking your advice which can help us to fight with this kind of issue, We are OK with the resolution and will try to apply it accordingly so please test the case and advice it according.

Regards,

dba_open

DBA_OPEN(3)								 1							       DBA_OPEN(3)

dba_open - Open database

SYNOPSIS

       resource dba_open (string  $path, string  $mode, [string  $handler], [mixed  $...])

DESCRIPTION

       dba_open(3) establishes a database instance for $path with $mode using $handler.

PARAMETERS

	      o $path
		- Commonly a regular path in your filesystem.

	      o $mode
		-  It is r for read access, w for read/write access to an already existing database, c for read/write access and database creation
		if it doesn't currently exist, and n for create, truncate and read/write access. The database is  created  in  BTree  mode,  other
		modes (like Hash or Queue) are not supported.  Additionally you can set the database lock method with the next char. Use l to lock
		the database with a .lck file or d to lock the databasefile itself. It is important that all of your applications do this  consis-
		tently.   If you want to test the access and do not want to wait for the lock you can add t as third character. When you are abso-
		lutely sure that you do not require database locking you can do so by using - instead of l or d. When none of d, l or -  is  used,
		dba will lock on the database file as it would with d.

	      Note

		      There  can  only	be  one  writer for one database file. When you use dba on a web server and more than one request requires
		     write operations they can only be done one after another. Also read during write is not allowed. The dba extension uses locks
		     to prevent this. See the following table:

		     DBA locking
