To view folder permissions in Linux, you can use the command:
ls -l
This will display the permissions of the files and directories in the current directory. The output will look something like this:
-rw-rw-r– 1 root root 0 Oct 12 19:12 file.txt
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 18 18:50 folder
The first column displays the permissions of the file or folder. The next three columns show the owner of the file, the group that owns the file, and the size of the file. The last three columns show the date and time the file was last modified.
