CompTIA ITF+ FC0-U61 (V5) Practice Question

On a Linux system that uses traditional POSIX file permissions, you run the following command without any additional options:

chmod 755 /home/projects

The directory /home/projects already contains several files and sub-directories. Which of the following best describes what the command actually does?

  • It changes permissions on /home/projects and every existing file directly inside it, but not the sub-directories.

  • It changes only the permissions on /home/projects; existing files and sub-directories keep their original permissions.

  • It has no effect, because chmod requires the -R switch to modify any directory.

  • It changes permissions on /home/projects and on all existing files and sub-directories beneath it.
