I have a lot of files created by a (much too) complex script and the user I am running with has a default group of 'staff' but I want all files created to have <client>grp which we create to ensure that only authorised people have access to a particular clients data. I have a command in Linux that does this but I am running on AIX (I want it portable so a pure perl method is better...)
MY solutions are chgrp on the file after creation. Great initially but then someone will forget for a new file and besides it adds a lot more code and the complexity goes up. I ended up adding the group to the directory with g+s to force the group but there may be a time were we use common directories and the file should be protect there as well. I cannot google an answer because there are too many answers and I cannot figure out how to fine tune my query. I want to change the group files are created with and I cannot google an answer because I get too many answers.
