File.lchmod

(::int mode, *::string | ::_ToPath file_name) -> ::Integer
File.lchmod(mode_int, file_name, ...) → integer

Equivalent to File::chmod, but does not follow symbolic links (so it will change the permissions associated with the link, not the file referenced by the link). Often not available.
