Access Control List and Permission

Define Permission and ACLs on File and Directory .Its Principle and Types

Use Simple or Basic Permission on File or Directory

Getting ready

$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh

How we to do it

From the man pages chmod, it change file mode bits.

$ ls -l
$ mkdir new
$ ls -l
$ chmod ugo+rwx new
$  ls -l

How it work

Use mask and umask value

Getting ready

$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh

How to do it

check the mask value.Its Syntax

$mask

set manually for temporary

$mask 027

How we make mask value default

$ vim /etc/profile
.......
if [ $UID -gt 199 ] && [ "`id -gn`" = "`id -un`" ]; then
    umask 002
else
    umask 022
fi
........

umask value. Its syntax

$umask

How it work

Advanced Permissions or Special permission on File or Directory

Getting ready

$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh

How we to do it

Set Suid,Sgid & Stikybit use sgid

$ ls -l
$ chmod 2770 new

StikyBit

$ ls -l
$chmod 3770 new
$ ls -l

Example

$ groupadd sales
$useradd -G sales ram
$useradd -G sales shyam
$useradd -G sales radha
$ mkdir -p /admin/sales
$ chgrp sales /admin/sales
$chmod 2770 /admin/sales

Check the permission its true or False(use CTRL+SHIFT+T for next terminal and open new user with su - command )

Go to the user ram in /admin/sales and make file ram.txt

$ su -ram
$ cd /admin/sales
$ touch ram.txt

then select user

Then go to next user shyam in /admin/sales and make file shyam.txt

$ su -shyam
$ cd /admin/sales
$ touch shyam.txt

Then go to last user radha in /admin/sales and make file radha.txt

$ su -radha
$ cd /admin/sales
$ touch radha.txt

then go user ram and check file radha.txt created by user radha

$vim /admin/sales/radha.txt
This is radha file
:wq

then go next user shyam and check file ram.txt created by user ram

$vim /admin/sales/ram.txt
This is ram file
:wq

then go next user radha and check file shyam.txt created by user shyam

$vim /admin/sales/shyam.txt
This is shyam file
:wq

Finally Every one would be editing or changing the text file.

Use StikyBit for secure the owner file in Group

chmod 3770 /admin/sales

Creating a group with specify GID

$ groupadd -g 70002 customers

How it work

Manage ACLs. Its Syntax

Getting ready

$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh

How to do it

From the man pages acl, it Access Control Lists

Viewing and interpreting ACL permissions

Use ls -l for view the output

$ ls -l
-rw-rwxr--+ 1 vagrant vagrant   0 May 17 03:11 doc.txt

From man pages getfacl, it get file access control lists.

Use getfacl for view the file.

$ getfacl doc.txt 
# file: doc.txt
# owner: vagrant
# group: vagrant
user::rw-
user:ram:rwx
group::rw-
mask::rwx
other::r--

Use getfacl for view the Directory.

$ getfacl .
# file: .
# owner: vagrant
# group: vagrant
user::rwx
group::---
other::---
Securing File with ACLs

To add or modify a user or named user ACL

From man pages setfacl, it set file access control list.

use setfacl for file

$ setfacl -m u:name:r-X <file>
$ setfacl -m u:ram:r-X doc.txt
$ getfacl doc.txt

use setfacl for directory

$ setfacl -m u:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -m u:ram:r-X /admin/sales

for default name user

$ setfacl -m d:u:name:r-X file
$ setfacl -m d:u:ram:r-X doc.txt

use ACLs mask

$ setfacl -m m::r <file> 
$ setfacl -m m::r <directory>

Recursive ACLs modifications

$ setfacl -R -m u:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -R -m g:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -R -m u:ram:r-X /admin/sales
$ setfacl -R -m g:name:r-X /admin/sales

To add or modify a group or named user ACL

use setfacl for file

$ setfacl -m g:name:r-X <file>
$ setfacl -m g:sales:r-X doc.txt

use setfacl for directory

$ setfacl -m g:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -m g:sales:r-X /admin/sales

for default name group

$ setfacl -m d:g:name:r-X file
$ setfacl -m d:g:sales:r-X doc.txt

Deleting ACL

To delete a user or named user ACL use setfacl for file.

$ setfacl -x u:name:r-X <file>
$ setfacl -x u:ram:r-X doc.txt

use setfacl for directory

$ setfacl -x u:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -x u:ram:r-X /admin/sales

for default name user

$ setfacl -m d:u:name:r-X file
$ setfacl -m d:u:ram:r-X doc.txt

To delete a group or named user ACL

use setfacl for file

$ setfacl -m g:name:r-X <file>
$ setfacl -m g:sales:r-X doc.txt

use setfacl for directory

$ setfacl -m g:name:r-X <directory>
$ setfacl -m g:sales:r-X /admin/sales

delete default name group

$ setfacl -x d:g:name:r-X file
$ setfacl -x d:g:sales:r-X doc.txt

TO delete All default ACL on a directory.

$ setfacl -k /<directory>
$ setfacl -k /admin/sales

To delete all ACL on a directory

$ setfacl -b /<directory>
$ setfacl -b /admin/sales
