Re: [cobalt-users] Setting permissions for users via su

[Dennis <dkc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Craig-

What you can do is install the users files in there directory and edit them via
root (su). Then once you are done issue the following two commands to make them
owned by the siteadmin and group and other one to make them readable to all.

chown -R siteadmin.group /home/sites/site#/web
chmod -R +rx /home/sites/site#/web

siteadmin = the username of ther user set as the siteadmin for the domain.
group = is the site# (ie. site50, site10, site3)
