Paid on delivery

We have a AWS EC2 instance running Ubuntu 16.06. We need to give access to the instance via SSH to a contractor from outside of the company. Because of security restrictions, their access needs to be restricted to protect our user's data. 1. A user has been created for them and they have been allocated into the www-data and contractor groups. 2. The user needs to be able to access (read/write/execute) their home directory, and /var/www/html/app/code/ (and sub-directories) and /var/www/html/app/design/ (and sub-directories) but no other parts of the site. 3. The website group (www-data) needs to retain ownership of the /var/www and sub-directories. You will need to be familiar with Linux and system administration. Access will not be provided directly to the site but a person at our end can screenshare and follow your instructions. Please indicate your familiarity with Ubuntu administration by replying with the command to elevate the current login to the root user.

Hello Sir/Madam We're experienced in managing several Ubuntu web servers with shared hosting and ssh access. This exact use case is very common. Its achieved by chrooted jail. As per your challenge: - "sudo su -" (switches to root user) - "sudo *command here* " (elevates current user permission to root) Since this is our first time on this site and hence you can see that we do not have any ratings to show you we are prepare to work hard and for a good price. We can assure you that working with us will be a good investment. Grab your opportunity, lets talk! Cloud Arch Team

@chevyinasia

Hi there. To answer your challenge, one can use either `su root` or `sudo -i`. This is actually pretty simple. I manage multiple production servers where the customers' own devs have access similarly to what you describe, with the additional constraint that they can only access ssh from their fixed office (or jumpbox) IPs. By the way, your directory structure looks like Magento, which is exactly the use case for several of the aforementioned customers. At least one of them is on AWS, on the same version of Ubuntu.

I am very familiar with Ubuntu system, I've been working on linux as system engineer for years. My suggestion is to use filesystem ACL to implement permission control for the user.
