    Set default permission on a folder

    Hi all,

    I have a shared folder in my Linux server. The problem is when a user create a child folder in the shared folder, other users cannot copy or create files into that child folder.

    How do I set the default permission so that all members of a group can create/delete files/folders in the shared folder, without manually set the permissions?

    Thanks
