so, file system-based folders are not an option ... is there a way to set default permissions on virtually shared folders? i.e., is it possible to define a default acl for a shared folder that will be handed down to all user-created sub-folders underneath this shared folder? if this is not the case, the only thing left i can image to accomplish the desired setup would be the following: - create a specific account for each group that need their own shared folder, say shared-group1, shared-group2 etc. - create a maildir for each of these accounts that will be a container holding all the shared dirs for the respective group - set acl to anyone:aceilrstwx for these folders and finally - revoke access rights for users not belonging to the group via the file system, ie. chown -R :group1 shared-group1/ and chmod -R 770 shared-group1/ now, that would be nasty, wouldn't it? with kind regards, thoralf. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
