Hello, This is probably simple, but I keep hitting a dead end with this. I have a user on the server that's an admin and via ssh, I'd like this user to be able to access /var/www/sitename.com/web. Unfortunately the user can get all of the way to /var/www/sitename.com but when trying to access the web folder, "-bash: cd: web: Permission denied" comes up. THe owner of the folder is web2, the group is client1. I've added the admin shell user to the group "client1" and the user also has access to sudo and www-data. Directory listing: drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Apr 10 21:10 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Apr 10 21:10 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 web2 client1 4096 Apr 10 21:10 cgi-bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 10 21:54 log drwx--x--- 2 web2 client1 4096 Apr 10 21:10 private drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 10 21:10 ssl drwxrwxrwx 2 web2 client1 4096 Apr 10 21:10 tmp drwxrwxr-- 4 web2 client1 4096 Apr 10 21:10 web drwx--x--- 2 web2 client1 4096 Apr 10 21:10 webdav Any idea what I'm missing? Thank you
Hi What is user ID for the shell user? Please be precise & follow like this. If you created the shell user as testuser & password as pass1, then at the login bash your ssh login will be like this ssh defaulttestuser@yourserverIP & the password will be pass1. Br// Srijan
The permissions are fine. A shell user hat has been added manually can not access any websites, if he is not root user. Thts intended and made to protect the sites. If sou want to have a shell user that can access this website, then create one in ispconfig.
