DAC permission functionality in Go Linux
GO Endpoint Manager for Linux supports execution masks for Discretionary Access Control (DAC) type permission. You can use values ranging from 0 to 07777 to define permissions.
Description of DAC Permission values
The values follow the following distribution:
- The first value, 0, indicates the start of the permission mask for the system.
- The second value refers to special permissions a user can have.
- The third value refers to write, read and execute permissions for the owner of the file or directory.
- The fourth value refers to write, read, and execute permissions for a group of the file or directory.
- The fifth value refers to write, read and execute permissions for other users of the file or directory.
