How to change permissions for a folder and its subfolders/files in one step
I would like to change the permissions of a folder and all its subfolders and files in one step (command) in Linux.
I have already tried the below command but it works only for the mentioned folder:
chmod 775 /opt/lampp/htdocs
Is there a way to set chmod 755 for /opt/lampp/htdocs and all of its content including subfolders and files?
Also, in the future, if I create a new folder or file inside htdocs, how can the permissions of that automatically be set to 755?
I had a look at this Stack Overflow question too:
