  I got tired of looking for what they all meant a couple years ago, so I made a txt file with them, just found it while I was looking for something else.  Maybe someone can get something out of this.

CHMOD = change mode // permissions
This applies to a Unix or Unix type based OS. On a windows OS , you’ll be changing the permissions ( same thing, just no chmod.) Sorry ☹


   


U = User / G = Group / W = World
   
R = Readable / W = Writable / X = Executable / - = No permission
                                                                     

U   G   W
rwx rwx rwx     chmod 777 /filename ~ or path     
rwx rwx r-x      chmod 775 /filename
rwx r-x r-x       chmod 755 /filename
rw- rw- r--        chmod 664 /filename
rw- r-- r--         chmod 644 /filename

If you have to do it this way, you add them up to get the final value. So to read , and write by owner, would be 600 and so on. The total value is 751 for full permissions.

Permissions:
400     read by owner
040     read by group
004     read by anybody (other)
200     write by owner
020     write by group
002     write by anybody
100     execute by owner
010     execute by group
001     execute by anybody
