Permissions in Jail

Post by zakroma »

OK, I confess: I can't figure out all the permissions thing with Jails and that thing bothers me A LOT.

I will be immensely grateful for a kind soul to explain them to me and I hope that will be very valuable to anyone not deeply involved in unix administration.

So according to this Alexey123's post it's much better to do things in jail not as root but as some unprivileged user.

I got it.

But how do permissions in Jail and on the Host pc cooperate?
And by cooperation I mean when I mount the very same folder from Host to Jail.
What do I need to set for my JailUser inside my Jail or Host for him to be able to read/write to some folder on my Host machine without any hiccups?
