SETCAP(8)                   System Manager's Manual                  SETCAP(8)

NAME
       setcap - set file capabilities
SYNOPSIS
       setcap [-q] [-v] (capabilities|-|-r) filename [ ... capabilitiesN fileN
       ]
DESCRIPTION
       In the absence of the -v (verify) option setcap sets  the  capabilities
       of  each  specified  filename  to  the  capabilities specified.  The -v
       option is used to verify that the specified capabilities are  currently
       associated with the file.
       The   capabilities   are   specified   in   the   form   described   in
       cap_from_text(3).
       The special capability string, '-', can be used to indicate that  capa-
       bilities  are read from the standard input. In such cases, the capabil-
       ity set is terminated with a blank line.
       The special capability string, '-r', is used to remove a capability set
       from a file.
       The -q flag is used to make the program less verbose in its output.
EXIT CODE
       The setcap program will exit with a 0 exit code if successful. On fail-
       ure, the exit code is 1.
