I would have your rsync script run a couple find commands to locate all directories and files and force their permissions to the correct settings: find /wherever -type d | xargs chmod 755 find /wherever -type f | xargs chmod 664 with appropriate values for 'wherever' and the permission bits. If the web designer is accessing via samba, you can do things with smb.conf to force modes when creating directories and files. --[Lance] -- Celebrate The Circle http://www.celebratethecircle.org/ Carolina Spirit Quest http://www.carolinaspiritquest.org/ My LiveJournal http://www.livejournal.com/users/labrown/ GPG Fingerprint: 409B A409 A38D 92BF 15D9 6EEE 9A82 F2AC 69AC 07B9 CACert.org Assurer -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/
