Re: Sticky premissions.



Hi,
If I understand you right, you want to create a group of users that will 
have the read/write permissions in the "public" directory.
You will have to do this:
Say the public directory called: public_dir
1. make the group of users you want and chown the directory that the group 
will have the permissions to this directory
2. chmod 764 public_dir - This will make the directory rwx by the user and 
rw for the group and r permission for the others
or you can do: chmod g+rw public_dir - adds read and write for group to the 
directory.
hmm....you can do that with adding ACLs there are the change, insert and 
delete permissions adding a rwc to a group of users will make all the users 
be able to read-write-change (give a user or group access to change)

If I understand you right, this is the answer to the question. If not, sorry.
