Policy to change permissions on an Application

[jaymckay]

Hello All,

I created a Google Drive package, which was deployed as part of a Config. The problem is, somehow read/write permissions are somehow not coming across to new users that are created on that machine. Ideally, I would like to scope a policy or script to set the permissions on Google Drive such that "Everyone = Read/Write". Currently users are prompted to click OK to run GDrive everytime they reboot. Once I go in and add their specific username to the permissions of the App with Read/Write permissions, the message goes away and all is good.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Jay

From a policy, Advanced tab > Run Commmand: chmod -R 755 /Applications/Google Drive.app

Typical application permissions for owner = rwx, user/group = rx
