Question

Accepted Answer

A. By the octal representation of the file access permission, John is restricting the group members to The group octet value of 4 translates to read-only (r--), meaning group members are restricted to read access only - no write or execute permissions are granted to them. D. John is providing all rights to the owner of the file. The owner octet value of 7 (4+2+1) grants read, write, and execute permissions simultaneously, which constitutes all available rights for the file owner.

Answer

B. The textual representation of the file access permission of 741 will be -rwxr--rw-. chmod 741 produces -rwxr----x, not -rwxr--rw-; the others field (1) grants only execute, not write, making rw- incorrect for the final triplet.

Answer

C. John is restricting a guest to only write or execute the secure.c file. The others (guest) octet value of 1 grants only execute permission, not write; stating 'write or execute' misrepresents what the single bit value of 1 permits.
