How to give permissions to a certain directory inside your home:

  • Set the permissions of your home to 710
chmod 710 /home/youruser
  • Set the permissions to the externaluser to a directory inside your home (This can be rwx, rw, r-x, etc.)
lfs lsetfacl -m user:externaluser:rwx /home/youruser/path/to/directory

This will grant permission only on that directory, not recursively to the inner directories, if you want to do it recursively, use -Rm instead of -m.

If you want to remove the externaluser permissions

lfs lsetfacl -x externaluser /home/youruser/path/to/directory
