Subject: Protecting lost+found from rmdir by directory owner?
Let's say I create a new ext4 filesystem for exclusive use by alice and
when I mount it, say, on /mnt/alice I set the permissions so that alice
can work in that directory:
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/foo
# mount /dev/foo /mnt/alice
# chown alice:alice /mnt/alice
# chmod 775 /mnt/alice
But now /mnt/alice/lost+found is at the mercy of alice since she has
write permission for /mnt/alice.
[How] can I protect /mnt/alice/lost+found from removal by alice?
Thoughts?
