Bug#948944: general: File Premissions broken, Group write access denied
Package: general
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Looks like something is broken with the file premissions.. Quick test to replicate the problem
Install Debian
Create 2 users
Create a folder /test
add user1 to user2's group
usermod -a -G user2 user1
make the Test folder writeable by that group
as root chown user2:user2 /test
chmod 2775 /test
As user1 try to write in /test
user1:/test$ mkdir test2
you'll get a premission denied error, for a reason i can't figure out. I've tried many different
commands and goolged incase the useradd commands changed ( never know with linux any more )
I haven't used debian since version 8, i've been using Cent. But this should be a standard....
