Hello,
In the NTFS file system, under the security option in a folder's properties,
there is an advanced option where a user/group can be restricted from
writing or deleting existing files in the directory but at the same time can
be granted permission to create a new file or folder. So while existing data
on that folder cannot be edited or deleted, the user can paste new files in
that folder. Can such special permissions be granted in EXT3 or JFS file
systems? On the net I find that advanced ACLs mainly have 3 options of read
write and execute. If write permission is granted, user will delete files.
Without read permission, user cannot paste new files.
