Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36647
Affects: gnome-vfs2 (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
When you have multiple workgroups and users are members of overlapping
and different sets of workgroups, directorys are set chmod g+s in order
to inherit permissions when creating a file further along the branch of
the tree.
Problem is, every application respects this except for nautilus/gnome-fs2
This basically makes Desktop Linux in a multiuser (say corporate) environment not a possiblity until this is fixed.
