To configure permissions for SFTP files, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the terminal and navigate to the root folder where SFTP files are located.
1. Run the command “ls -l” to see the files and their current permissions.
1. Use the chmod command to change permissions. The syntax for this command is “chmod [permissions] [file]”. For example, to give read, write, and execute permissions for the owner of the file, the command would be “chmod 700 [file]”.
1. You can also use “chmod -R” to change permissions for all files in a directory and its subdirectories.
1. Use the chown command to change the owner of a file. The syntax for this command is “chown [user]:[group] [file]”. For example, to change the owner to user admin and group staff, the command would be “chown admin:staff [file]”.
1. Use the chgrp command to change the group of a file. The syntax for this command is “chgrp [group] [file]”. For example, to change the group to staff, the command would be “chgrp staff [file]”.
1. Once you have set the correct permissions for the files, you can test the SFTP connection to ensure that the user can upload and download files as required.
