All
A small but very annoying problem. Nothing appropriate in the archives, so
would appreciate the help.
We have a directory on a Solaris8 server which has the SGID bit set, allowing
all files created in the directory to belong to the same group, the one that
the directory belongs to. This works fine when creating new files with touch,
cat, vi and so on, and works fine with cp as well. But when you mv a file, the
rules seem to go out the window, and the file belongs to the default group of
the user doing the mv.
Is this a feature?
Thanks, I will send out a summary.
