Hi there
We recently got a new Mac Mini Server with 10.6 Server on it. It has two 500GB volumes, one of which [Macintosh HD2 the extra one other than the boot disk] we are using to share our work files.
I have added a user account for each user in the Users pane on Server Preferences, and all our staff (users added to the system) are added to a new group, called toolboxstaff.
Now, when a user creates a new folder on this volume, folders are created with read-only access for everyone else besides the owner.
How do I set it that when a user creates a folder, it creates it with RW access for the toolboxstaff group?
Thanks in advance.
