     How you can create Files
    Agenda for Today’s Class
     File Permission in Linux

     Basic Unix/Linux Commands


    continued…
     Assign Permission to the users
    i.e. U, GU, O
     Practically Demonstration of
    Linux commands (LAB)
    Moving and Re-naming files

     To move a file, use the command


     mv filename new_file_location
     Suppose we want to move the file
    “SNAL-2020" to location
    /home/drhafizad/Desktop. Executing
    the command
    How you can create
    Directory?

     Directories can be created on a Linux


    operating system using the following
    ‘mkdir’
     This command will create a
    subdirectory in your present working
    directory, which is usually your
    "Home Directory".
     For example,
     mkdir HelloWorld
    The History Command

     History command shows all the


    commands that you have used in the
    past for the current terminal session.
     This also can help you refer to the old
    commands you have entered and re-
    used them in your operations again.
    The clear Command

     This command clears all the mess on


    the terminal and gives you a clean
    window to work on, just like when
    you launch the terminal.
    How can we Change file/directory
    permissions?

    'chmod' command
     We can use the 'chmod' command
    which stands for 'change mode’.
     By Using this command, we can set
    permissions (read, write, execute) on a
    file/directory for the owner, group and
    the world. Syntax:
     Chmod permission filename
    How many ways to express
    permissions in Linux?

     There are 2 ways to use the


    command :

     Absolute mode
     Symbolic mode
    Absolute Mode

     Absolute Mode/Numeric Mode

     In this mode, permissions are not


    represented as characters but a three-
    digit octal number.
     Octal Number?
    Absolute Mode…

    Number Permission Type Symbol


    0 No Permission ---
    1 Execute --x
    2 Write -w-
    3 Execute + Write -wx
    4 Read r--
    5 Read + Execute r-x
    6 Read +Write rw-
    7 Read + Write rwx
    +Execute
    Absolute Mode…

     How you can change the Permission


    of file/folders?
     For Example, we want to change the
    permissions of the file RedHat to
    '764'.
    Absolute code

    '764' absolute code says the following:


     Owner can read, write and execute
     Usergroup can read and write
     World can only read

     This is shown as '-rwxrw-r-This is how you can


    change the permissions on file by assigning an
    absolute number.
