Description
Problem description
- In the technique "Enforce a file content" it's possible to enforce
standard permissions, but no sticky bit or setuid/setgid bit can be set - In the technique "Download a file from the shared folder" it's possible
to enforce standard permissions and to set the setuid/setgid bit, but no
sticky bit can be set - In the technique "Download a file" it's possible to enforce standard
permissions, but no sticky bit or setuid/setgid bit can be set - In the technique "Set the permissions on files" it's possible to enforce
standard permissions and to set the setuid/setgid bit, but no sticky bit
can be set - In the technique "Manage files and folders" it's possible to enforce
standard permissions, but no sticky bit or setuid/setgid bit can be set
Short problem description
- I really miss the possibility to set the sticky bit in all techniques
setting permissions - I really miss consistancy across techniques
Proposal
Please use NCF blocks and force the use of NCF blocks in all techniques
needing particular functionality.
IMHO there should be one - and really only one - NCF block setting
permissions. This block should be used in all techniques setting
permissions.
Use of certain blocks, like permission adjustment, should not
be optional. If there's a need for enhanced functionality, the block
should be changed, not the techniques making use of the block.
