I need to change the root password on a Linux system, and all I need is a working UNIX system that is capable of mounting ext2fs. 2) How can I chmod/chown a directory so that everyone in a specific group can write to it, but not delete a file that they don't own. Here's an example: (not realistic, but it's understandable) file1.tgz user1.group 664 file2.tgz user2.group 664 ... ... What do I chmod/chown the directory so that everyone in 'group' can write to it, and create new files, but only delete files that they own as a user? (i.e. user1 can only delete file1.tgz, and create a new, file123.tgz, but user2 won't be able to touch those files, just file2.tgz which he owns) If you don't understand something, please ask.
