How about a big hammer? cron:

Try exec+ if they move a lot of files.

Thanks for the reply.  :-)


I would also need to do directories. Ignoring the group sticky bit, the desired mode is the same. So, I could lose the find and just "chmod -R 0777". But, what about symbolic links? Or sockets, named pipes, block or character specials, etc.? Hmmm... Perhaps I need to forget about local access and settle for a Samba solution for regular files and directories only -- e.g. configure Samba to provide the needed functionality and then make Samba the only way into or out of GroupShare.
