Final test: Users, permissions, and processes

Question 3 of 18

One correct answer

A colleague has `w` on report.txt but no write on the directory that holds it. The path is open. What can the colleague do?

Rename the file, since he can change it.
Append to the file, but not delete it.
Not even open the file.
Append nothing — the file's w does not work without the directory's w.
