inheritable permissions
Hello,
I have a problem with permissions and not sure how to resolve it.
this is the scenario:
two users
test1, test2
part of a group called test
each user is logged onto a Samba domain, the client machines are win2k
a folder called "test folder" which is shared, root user created the folder and is owner, the group permissions are set to rwx for "test" group.
test1 creates a folder called "new folder"
test2 has access to it but can not create or modify the contents of it.
is there a way to get the permissions to filter down from the main folder (test folder) so that if user test1 creates a folder all users in the test group from the main directory group has rwx permissions. can i also retain the owner as root and not the person who created the folder?
i have used the GUI to set the set gid and set uig bits but that doesnt seem to make any difference. i dont know the command way for that, but it shouldnt make any difference should it?
if you need any further information please ask.
Steve
