Chmod Calculator
Build numeric and symbolic Unix permissions from readable controls.
Calculate Unix file permissions
Numeric permissions sum read, write and execute values separately for owner, group and others.
Permissions interact with ownership, groups, ACLs and server configuration; avoid granting write or execute access without a reason.
