Alice and Bob are both users on a Unix system, and Alice wants to share some files in a work documents directory with Bob. Alice executes the following series of commands: [alice@research home]$ pwd /home [alice@research home]$ ls -ld alice 3 alice [alice@research home]$ cd [alice@research alice]$ ls -ld work-docs/ drwxr-x--- alice 4096 Apr 29 10:43 alice drwxrwx--- 2 alice alice 4096 Apr 29 10:43 vork-docs/ [alice@research alice)$ cd work-docs/ [alice@research work-docs]$ 1s -1 total 8 1 alice 1 alice -rw-rw-r- alice 49 Apr 29 10: 40 file1. txt 22 Apr 29 10:43 file2. txt -rw-rw-r-- alice [alice@research work-docs]$ chmod 644 file2.txt [alice@research work-docs]$ umask 0002 [alice@research work-docs]$ vi file3. txt [alice@research work-docs]$ (In the final command, she uses the vi editor to create a third document).
