No actually they access from thinclient through the network. They login with their own user names, and in the home folders are customised profiles,
Then, probably your problem is the default umask. Ie, users create files with these rights:
rwxr-xr-x
And you'd like
rwxrwxr-x
Edit /etc/profile and replace "umask 022" with 002
Changing umask will not change ownership and you may not want this to apply to files in their home dir. You can set the perms for the dir with 6770 which will set the sticky bit for the owner and group and should make all new files created have the owner/group the same as the parent dir. Perhaps a change of the umask with setting the sticky bit would be best. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
