Hi Thanks for responding. With a little googling and understanding what you spoke about I solved my problem (almost) by using the umask option. After RTFM I knew what I had to do and got it done. This is the link that helped me out. http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rc/help/faq/permissions.html By setting the umask 002 in /etc/profile my problem is resolved as far as I create files and folder using Nautilus or a bash console. :-( The problem still persists if I create folders or save files (attachments) using applications like Kmail, Mozilla, or Konqueror. :-( Is there a global setting to set the umask for all applications to use 002?
