Folder Custodian

Linux Common Folder Custodian

• Free software: GNU General Public License v3

• Documentation: https://fcust.readthedocs.io.

Features

This package is intended to perform maintenance over a folder shared across many users in a Fedora Workstation. The folder belongs to a group for which all users are members.

• Go through a folder’s content and enforce common group ownership.

• Go through a folder’s content and enforce common group read and write permissions as well as set groupid sticky bit.

• Provide a command line command with sane defaults for enforcing common folder group ownership and permissions.

• (TODO) Write logs to /tmp/fcust.

• (TODO) Provide user systemd service to periodically enforce common folder group ownership and permissions.

The key problem this package intends to solve is that files moved from one location to another do not inherit proper permissions in the commonly used folder and therefore when another user tries to access them they encounter problems.
