What is group ownership?(a) group of users who can access the file(b) group of users who can create the file(c) group of users who can edit the file(d) group of users who can delete the fileThe question was posed to me during an internship interview.This interesting question is from File Ownership and Permissions in portion Basic File Attributes of Unix

Answer»

The CORRECT choice is (a) group of users who can access the file

The best I can explain: When the system ADMINISTRATOR creates a user account, he assigns the user two parameters; UID (user ID) and GID (group ID). Group id denotes the group to which the user belongs.

In SIMPLE WORDS, group ownership defines the group to which the file is accessible.
