- Sorry if this is a FAQ...
-
- What does a mode set-guid mean for a directory? I notice that our Sun has most
- system directories, like /etc, set to mode 's' for group. The man pages say
- this is possible but is ignored. So why is it set???
-
- I posted this before, but I'm pretty sure it didn't go out...
