The thing is users can add a file to the database dir (which has 'jarob' as the group), and all users can read the files. But no one besides the creator of the file can change or delete it. I have to go in manually and set g+w on the files. Is there a way for g+w to be set when a new file is created? Basically I want to inherit the g+w setting of the directory.
I have created a directory that is shared using 'owner.group' access on a directory. rwilliams.mygroup is set on database directory. Since Redhat uses rwilliams.rwilliams for the user/group as default, it is causing me some trouble. When a user creates a file under /databases, they are the only one that can change or delete the file. I tried chmod g+s on /database, but that does not work.
Any ideas?
Hi Robert,
You may want to create a new group called dbusers or some such and add those users to that group. Alternatively, you could, create a more defined groups structure and then on user creation assign the users accordingly based on your better defined group structure.
Hope this helps you,
Phil Savoie
Thanks again
