General query...

Post by nike » 2022/05/25 11:32:35

Sir

root@XXXr /]# ls -ald /
dr-xr-xr-x. 37 root root 4096 May 25 16:20 /


[root@XXX /]# getfacl /
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: .
# owner: root
# group: root
user::r-x
group::r-x
other::r-x

In above showing there is not any write permission on root ( / ) directory but "root" user can write on ( / ) it ----why?? please anyone ..

Because root is god and can do anything. That's why you don't operate as root unless you need to.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
