Hi List;

I have 2 users which both have need to access various database related
files.I've created a new group called 'dba'. Most of the time I want
the users to create files with their default user:group perms, however
when I'm working on these sql / db files I want the files to be
created with the default user as the owner but dba as the group.

The standard way of doing this is for the DB software to run setgid as
the dba group. Since you don't say what the DB software is, it's hard to
say if that's appropriate in your case.

Thanks for the info.

FYI - I did not hijack a thread - I started this thread.
