Using filesystem capabilities with rsync

Posted on 2023-04-30 [Sunday] by Jay Jay
Reply

This a note for Future John: Using filesystem capabilities with rsync by Hazel Smith. Use the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH capability. AKA: how I learned to stop worrying and love CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. There are some more notes over on Linux Capabilities and rsync, from presentation to practice.

The project is being run by David Ackley.

Well I have just disabled the voicemail feature on my telephone account. Good riddance I say! Only con artists and scammers were leaving me messages, and forcing me to spend time sitting there deleting them all from time to time. No more!
