I just build a Rust server on Linux using I am having some trouble with understanding permissions however. My question is, does anyone know of a good general guide on permissions? I found this link on a forum posting here, and looked useful, but it 404's
https://umod.org/plugins/permissions-manager

Basically, downloaded a plugin called "backpacks" (https://umod.org/plugins/backpacks)If I open a chat window and type in /backpack it comes up "You don't have permission to use this command"
I added myself to a file I made called users.cfg under /serverfiles/rustserver/cfg
I have tried doing F1 and putting in oxide.grant etc etc but I get no verbose results? Am I supposed to be setting permissions via server console? or does F1 window suffice? I found some postings that said use this format "oxide.grant [user/group] <username> <permissions>" but I don't understand what the <permissions> argument is? also, how to address usernames with a space (Quotes?) Alot of information I am finding with google, comes up to oxides site, with page cannot be found

I just want all users on my server to have access to all plugins, any direction would be awesome!!
Thank you!

Did you take a glance at our permissions tutorial? https://umod.org/documentation/plugins/permissions

You can use the F1 console as long as you are owner/admin in Rust on that server. You won’t see a reply to the console though, only chat I believe. If using the commands via he server console, you will see a reply directly there.

With any commands from any plugin with spaces, you’d want to use quotation marks to be safe.

An user example for backpacks would be: oxide.grant user “Bob Barker” backpacks.use

A group example would be: oxide.grant group default backpacks.use

That looks like what I was looking for! That worked! I am not sure why I couldn't figure/find this. Thank you SO much! I believe I had a question several years ago on the Oxide site, and you were the one who pointed me in the right direction! Much appreciation/respect.

No problem. :)

Still, would be nice to have an in-game GUI that Admins can use for permissions, where did the 'permissions-manager' go by the way?

Kind Regards,
