I believe you're missing the point that the user isn't using NFS - this isn't shared files over a network, it's shared files over a shared disk. And a mask of 770 only means that it will preserve other permissions AFAIK - it won't set them. > Also, if you want to call osx Unix, call it broken unix. Most people > say its 'unix like' though.

I would agree that it is broken Unix, the point was just to demonstrate that a solution has been implemented somewhere else, and that it should be possible. I disagree that OSX is closer to windows than linux. The small amount of unix it inherits from darwin makes it orders of magnitude more robust than 'doze :). -- rbmj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
