CentOS 6: file and directory permissions
From: Helmut Drodofsky <drodofsky@internet-xs.de>
>I find nowhere the explanation of the dot in file permissions like: >-rw-r--r--. 1 root rootÂ* 457 AugÂ* 4 17:27 config >I have searched in forums, Red Hat deployment guide, storage administration guide etc Â*… Google "dot in permissions"... Results will tell you to read the ls info page, which says: Â*Â*Â*Â* Following the file mode bits is a single character that specifies Â*Â*Â*Â* whether an alternate access method such as an access control list Â*Â*Â*Â* applies to the file.Â* When the character following the file mode Â*Â*Â*Â* bits is a space, there is no alternate access method.Â* When it is Â*Â*Â*Â* a printing character, then there is such a method. Â*Â*Â*Â* GNU `ls' uses a `.' character to indicate a file with an SELinux Â*Â*Â*Â* security context, but no other alternate access method. Â*Â*Â*Â* A file with any other combination of alternate access methods is Â*Â*Â*Â* marked with a `+' character.
