For a homework assignment I have to execute some commands and report the results.
But when I try du /var > tmp.txt
it says I am not allowed to access tmp.txt
.
I have tried to use a different name for the file but no different results, I have tried to add the text file to the Computer folder in the GUI but I am unable to do that too.
I am in the sudo
group, sudo echo ok
returns ok
My question: why can't I add a simple txt
file to the Computer folder and how can I do this?
