Issue
I wanna know what's the real meaning of 'others' in Unix System File.
Okay I understand stuff like 755, and tips for remember things like 5 refers to Read Permission(4) + Execute Permission(1) etc...
But what does 'others' and 'group' really mean please ? Is it about for example a person who connect through SSH ?
If I use tools like Yeoman(yo), or NPM, did 'others' refers to theses tools that often create folders and files OR their actions depends of my permissions ?
Solution
In Unix Users
belong to Groups
. So a permission for a Group means: for all the other users of the group(s) to which the user belong to, while Others means a permission for all the other users (that is users different from the current user and not belonging to one of its groups).
