write permissions for nobody

[chaitanyajakhad]

hi,

If I want to give wirte permissions to user "nobody", what combination shall I use? I don't want to give write permissions to any other user except owner and "nobody".

Regards,
Chaitanya

You can't, unless you use the nobody group to set it.

ie, chown -R owner:nobody /var/www/html/

and then chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/

Giving the owner and the group nobody the write access, and "everyone" only read and execute
