Hello, I have the following problem which I hope someone can help. Suppose I have users: a,b,c,d,...,z.
User a,b,c,d,e,f,g is member of group "cooluser" The other users are member of the default group (which in RH is the group with the same name of the username). I want user d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l only to be able to share stuff in a directory, so I create a new group: sausage (using "groupadd" command), and put those user as a member of the group sausage. I created directory /home/sausage and change the owner to root.sausage with complete access to the group $> chown -R root.sausage /home/sausage $> chmod -R 775 /home/sausage Now, the problem is, if user d put a file in the /home/sausage, the ownership of the file is d.cooluser instead of d.sausage, [EMAIL PROTECTED] sausage]# ls -lah total 16k drwxrwxr-x 2 root sausage 4.0k Sep 25 11:01 . drwxr-xr-x 46 root root 4.0k Sep 25 10:59 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 d cooluser 6.6k Sep 25 11:01 KlugGlosT.DOC thus the other member of sausage which are not member of cooluser can't write to the file. What do I need to do so that the default ownership and permission in the directory sausage is root.sausage and rwx for the group? Thanks in advance for any help RDB -- Reuben D.
