ITPEC IP October 2021 Question 37
ITPEC IP October 2021 — Question 37 of 100
The required permissions are owner rwx, group r-x, and others --x, which is option (d). Everyone receives execute permission; only owner and group receive read permission; and write permission is granted only to the owner.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- (a) incorrectly grants write permission to the group
- (b) incorrectly grants read permission to other users
- (c) grants other users read and write but withholds their required execute permission
Key rule: Translate each requirement separately into read, write, and execute bits for owner, group, and others, then combine the results.
