That will allow the owner of the file to write, but will not let a user create new files in the directory. The 'sticky' bit on the directory will allow anyone to write to the directory and control their own files but not delete other peoples files or the directory itself. chown dirowner:dirgroup dirname chmod 1777 dirname This may or may not be what you want, but from the original description it seems to fit the bill.
