Subject: [9fans] the meaning of group
Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2008 14:57:11 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <22ffc92bd5cea206a4a87d70e6aa4846@quanstro.net> (raw)
for a file on a fileserver, the meaning of group and group
permissions is pretty clear. if the user belongs to the group
of the file and group permission is granted, then permission
is granted.
for a device file, the meaning of group is unclear to me,
as users on a cpu server are determinted by the auth server.
there are no groups.
is there any sensible interpretation of the group outside
a fossil/kfs/ken's fileserver?
