Sorry for that extremely brief answer before...

Anyways, I wasn't being unpolite, so again, sorry for that shout.

I haven't tried that myself, but You are correct when You say that
"umask" affects the user rather than Your files[{ystem}... - and
here You can already "smell" it].

I'd personally go for mount options, and that's what I wrote in
that previous post. - If You look into comp.os.linux.networking,
there was one thread about setting permissions on a samba share
which I replied to. Unfortunally, I mixed up that one with Your
problem. Anyway, with a samba share, it is extremely easy to
achieve what You are after. That's why I was talking about
"shares". - I'm into that sort of project (to my dislike) at the
moment, but I'd be surprised if You couldn't do that on a local
partition.


For me it's "Good Night", Jack.
