But if I copy a directory from another place through the nautilus and paste it into the directory with SGID, the copied directory does not have the SGID. for example: home directory test: $> ls -l drwxr-sr-x 2 myuser mygroup 4096 ene 21 16:47 test Create a new directorio called "dir1" with nautilus into of test. Result: $> ls -l test drwxr-sr-x 2 myuser mygroup 4096 ene 21 17:09 dir1 This is correct. ========= NOW ========= if I copy a directory from another place (for example /home/user/dir2) called "dir2" through the nautilus and paste it into the directory "test", the result is: $> ls -l test drwxrwsr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:09 dir1 drwxrwxr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:12 dir2 The directory dir2 not have "s" SUID in group user. If I do this from the command line without using nautilus it works correctly. example: $> cp -r /home/user/dir2 /home/user/test/. $> ls -l test drwxrwsr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:09 dir1 drwxrwsr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:12 dir2 this way it works Any more this happens? Since I can not open an issue, I do it here.
