Sireesha,

Are you looking for something beyond the normal ownership bits? There is an
HTML introduction to UNIX in these forums that goes over the basics of permission bits. If you are looking for something more granular, you can use extended Access Control Lists (ACLs).

The following thread shows an example of created an extended ACL using setfacl. You can search for more info in these forums.

Cheers,

Keith
