I would like to structure my files/permissions in the following way and I want to know how to do it if it's possible as I have been unsuccessful so far.

My users are arranged in a hierarchy of groups. I would like to have a /files directory for each group and I would like the permissions such that a member of a group has access to the directory for that group, as well as the subdirectories which belong to the subgroups.

E.g.

/users/groupA
/users/groupB      <-- groupB is a child of groupA

/files
/files/groupA
/files/groupA/groupB

Users in groupA should be able to access /files/groupA and /files/groupA/groupB.

Users in groupB should only be able to access /files/groupA/groupB.

I've tried to set this up by granting inheritable permissions to groupA for /files/groupA, which works (users in groupA can access all the directories) until I grant permissions to groupB for /files/groupA/groupB. Once I do that, no one can access /files/groupA/groupB.

Help?

K.C.
