Setting permissions for specific user and groups in Linux
I have put some users into a group and would like to know how I use chmod to change the access permissions for only the members of that group. Thank you.

chmod g(+|-|=)<flags> [file ...]
Example:
chmod g+rw shared-file.txt

1Doesn't that depend on whether the group has been given ownership of the file? – PeanutsMonkey – 2012-05-23T19:22:24.290

– PeanutsMonkey – 2012-05-23T19:18:53.017Are the files in that group? – user151019 – 2012-05-23T19:19:08.867
5-1 there is no research effort shown here, a simple look at
chmod --helpor manpages would have solved the problem. a google search would've yielded thousands of results and then it has been asked a lot of times here on superuser before. – Baarn – 2012-05-23T19:31:59.723
