# Frequently Asked Questions | ||
|
||
Q1: Can a user access another user's home directory in JupyterLab? | ||
|
||
No. Every user's home directory is private to themselves and they cannot access contents | ||
of any other user's home directory. Example below shows the permissions of user directories | ||
in `/home`. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
$ ls -ltrh /home | ||
|
||
total 36K | ||
drwx------ 9 john-doe example-user 4.0K Apr 1 19:22 john-doe | ||
drwx------ 9 alice-doe example-user 4.0K Apr 1 19:34 alice-doe | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
john-doe@worker-01:~$ pwd | ||
/home/john-doe | ||
|
||
# The user john-doe unable to access contents of user alice-doe's home directory: | ||
john-doer@worker-01:~$ ls /home/alice-doe/ | ||
ls: cannot open directory '/home/alice-doe/': Permission denied | ||
``` |
