SGID and SUID on Directories


k, I have the SGID bit set on a directory, and as expected the files created in this directory are created as the SGID group, should the same happen if I set the SUID bit on the directory, should the files be created as owner SUID?

Thanks,
Mike.

SUID bit has no effect on directories, only files.
